Fw 190 D-9 photo reference (US National Archives)
 

There is a well-known photo, said to have been caught by the bomb-release camera of a B-26, which shows both an Fw 190 D-9 passing below the aircraft and a stick of falling bombs.


I'm assuming this is in the US National Archives but I obviously haven't found the right search terms to locate it. Does anyone know the specific document reference, please?

I have said photo from Alfred Price but no clues on the back

It might be on fold3 with the reference still written on side or back.

That worked! I should have tried Fold3 first — a search for "Fw 190" filtered for photographs and US World War Two.


In case anyone else needs it, it's NARA Reference Number: 342-FH-3A20441-56578AC and you can see threverse by clicking the 'next' arrow.


P.S. Thanks Chris, I'm pretty sure it was one of Alfred Price's books that I first saw it in.
