Re: American aircraft photos 8 - 12

Ed. Photo 1 is 44-87640 ( there is a better photo on Flickr showing this, also the Block 85-BW and 11 bombs)-- 462BG on Tinian late in the war ( 44-87641 flew 11 missions before the end).
The 1st "Iron George" was 44-27340, earlier. Presumably the other 2 are the same Group. "George" may be a crew name but it was the usual name for the Autopilot on board.
