Re: Operation Aphrodite

Hello Mike,
That doesn't mean that she was not named by her last crews in the "Aphrodite" team.

However to confirm your earlier one on named a/c "B17 Nose Art Name Directory" has -
"Melancholy" - 381 - 44-6950
"Melancholy Baby" - 381 - 44-6950
"Melancholy Baby" - 482 -

So 44-6950 was at one time a "Melancholy Baby"
while an unknown a/c with the 482BG was too.
Can it be found if 42-39827 was at any time with the 482nd BG ?
Freemans "B17 the Flying Fortress Story" has only note of the use by 306BG.

Alex
