Crippled B-26 photo

Hi all:
Seeking info on USAAF B-26C Marauder picture. Aircraft has left engine feathered and a belt of ammo is being thrown from lower tunnel gun position to lose weight.
SN on fin appears to be '135177' with large '17' over this.
I have this photo in two publications, but without date or details. Caption to one says: "returning from a mission in Italy" and "...damaged by German flak at Roccasecca Bridge".

TIA for any input from readers.

Regards,

BC
