B-25 - 477th BG - TUIOI
 

I refer to the picture of a B-25 at near bottom of article in this link: https://blog.history.in.gov/tag/world-war-ii/


B-25 bears the letters "TUIOI". Nickname or unit abbreviation?


B-25 was part of the 477th BG, a training unit at Tuskegee Army Airfield when picture was taken (March 1945).


Thanks for info.

It appears to read TU101 or Training Unit 101.

Ed,

Indeed. Will see if there was such a (sub)unit at Tuskegee, or perhaps a squadron code.

TU was the Fuselage Code for aircraft based at Tuskegee Army Air Field.
