Re: B-17G Skyraider 96th BG

Hi Jack !

Unfortunately, the 96th BG book "Snetterton Falcons" by Robert E. Doherty and Geoffrey D Ward remaks this nickname, but as Sky Raider. In this book is no serial-number, too. Can you provide us with more info's about the aircraft, names of crews and the probable fate of the machine ?.

Thank you !

All the best,

Horst Weber
