B-17E 41-2656 "Chief Seattle"
Nick, thank VERY much again, Nick. She wasn't in theater very long. I'm at work, but if I remember correctly she she came in in either late July or early August 1942, and was lost on her second mission. HK Models just released a 1/32 scale B-17E/F and the markings for the E are "Chief Seattle", and I wasn't sure about the U.S. ARMY underneath the wings still by that time in the War. Trying to gain as much knowledge on B-17's in the Pacific as they do not get the attention as the B-17's in Europe.
