Re: Need help to identify B-17

Good morning Check Six !

42-3051 was added to AAF inventory on 1st Jan. 1943 and arrived 18th March 1943 overseas.

The a/c gained 305th BG on 31st May 1943. From 27th July to 18th August 1943, the a/c was at teh Air force Service Command.

On 19th september 1943, 42-3051 was assigned to 384th BG.

It seems, that the a/c was during the Hüls raid on 22nd June 1943 assigned to 305th BG (KY*M).

All the best

Horst Weber
