Re: Memphis Belle
So the Belle was in fact the second B-17 to complete 25 missions. But the Belle's crew the first to complete 25 missions?
Why would Hells Angels have had three crews? Was that due to deaths on missions? I thought the policy of 8th AF was to allocate a specific crew to a specific bomber. So given that the Belle was the second B-17 to complete 25 missions (although it's crew the first), which was the next crew/B-17 combo to reach that milestone? |
