Re: Michael Arooth, B-17 gunner ace
Interesting article.
It's intrigueing that this high-scoring B-17 "Tondelayo" had the same name as the well-known high scoring B-25.
Have a good Sunday,
Michael

Probably not the only two planes with that name.

Some 64 photos to click through here re: Tondelayo ;-)

They seem to have darkened Hedy Lamarr's complexion but it looks rather spooky than appealing...
