Re: B-17E Suzy Q photo issue
Several questions that are asked in previous posts on this thread are answered in the following links.
Why the name Suzy-Q for the plane….. (see obit of priscilla). Find A Grave links for Felix and Priscilla. https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/...moses-hardison https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/...ardison-taylor Attached is an obit for Felix (appears he may have died of cancer). Life Magazine article on Suzy-Q starting on page 82. There are several good photos in the Life Magazine article from 1943. (Apparently Suzy-Q was the first B-17 to fly around the world, (but it took a little time….). https://books.google.com/books?id=mE...epage&q&f=true Some more info here: https://www.usmilitariaforum.com/for...56-b17-suzy-q/
