Re: Which 5 b-17s of 323 BS take off on 4 feb 1943. Hamm Raid.

Hi,
From Bishops book 42-5225 was a replacement a/c from the 8th February 1943.
So accident must have been after this date.
I include a list of the B17's of the 91st by sqdn from the book that would have been available as I see it. A look at the mission report would help.

322nd
41-24453; 41-24481; 41-24482; 41-24483; 41-24512; 41-24545; 42-2990; 42-5178.
323rd
41-24399; 41-24523; 41-24524; 41-24544; 41-24547; 41-24549; 41-24589; 42-5077.
324th
41-24464; 41-24480; 41-24485; 41-24490; 41-24504; 41-24505; 41-24515; 42-5069.
401st
41-24431; 41-24447; 41-24459; 41-24484; 41-24527; 42-5362; 42-5070; 42-5132.

Also ref "Heavy Bombers of the Mighty Eighth".
