Re: Is this a true statement about the B24?
I have to agree with Martin, the above statement is a complete fabrication. The very first official op carried out by the B-24 was on 20 September 1941 when Liberator I AM924 D/120 carried out an anti-submarine patrol from Nutts Corner, Norther Ireland. The RAF even beat the US with this first OP.
