Found a picture of #41 in "Camouflage and Markings No.17 - Consolidated B-24 Liberator USAAF - ETO 1942-1945". The captions says "A veteran 376th BG B-24D, serial 41-11779, en route to a target in December 1943. Exhaust fumes and dirt thrown up by the main under carriage have stained the Sand finish on the lower part of the vertical tail. RAF type fin flashes are carried on both inner and outer sides of the fins. In addition to the white battle number 41, this Liberator sports the black and yellow emblem of the 513th BS on its nose"

Captured by the Germans Yak-1B fighter squadron commander 148 th Fighter Regiment Leonid Smirnov at the airport. The plane is already marked with German identification signs, but on board the inscription: "Stalin's falcon Smirnov Leonid from the workers of the Frunze district of the city of Saratov."
