Volume 2 of the 3rd Bomb Group history will certainly have its share of spectacular low level combat photography.

I have researched the creation of the B-25 strafer by Maj. Paul "Pappy" Gunn and Jack Fox of North American Aviation and the men of the 81st Air Depot Group.

The Battle of the Bismarck Sea, war against Japanese barge traffic and the surprise low level attack against Wewak airdrome on 17 August 1943 will be covered in great detail using personal diaries, memoirs and interviews with the pilots and air crew including the RAAF pilots & WAGs seconded to the 3rd BG.

Photographs of most of the shark mouth and skull nose B-25 strafers will be included along with Jack Fellows' excellent color profiles of the 3rd BG B-25s and A-20s.

Coming later this year.
