Re: Captured B-24 Liberator
The photo shows the B-24 H-5-DT 41-28641 453rd BG, 732nd BS "Cee Gee". The aircraft failed to return from a practice mission on 4 February 1944, MACR 2968.
The 2nd Lt John R. Turner crew force-landed near Eger, Czech territory. The aircraft was repaired and flown by Kampfgeschwader 200 coded A3+KB. Recovered at Salzburg, Austria in May 1945. Regards Leo |
