Re: B 29 in Europe
Who Fears? The 301st Bomb Group in Peace and War, 1942-79, by Kenneth Werrell, has some interesting material on the first post-war B-29 deployments to Germany (before the "official" return of US bombers to bases in England).

Re: B 29 in Europe
Alain
The USAAF had a few B-29s tour Europe already in late 1945. 44-61679 (a B-29A) visited at least Denmark, Sweden, Norway and probably UK with a two day stop over at Bromma (Stockholm airport) between 27-29.9.1945. I know there were other B-29s as well, so this may not have any connection with your father what so ever... Cheers Stig

Re: B 29 in Europe
TB-29 45-21812 was the first ELINT B-29 deployment to Europe, operating from Frankfurt and Mildenhall starting in September 1947.
