Searching for a B-17G-25-BO, 42-31656
Hello, im looking for picture and nose art verification for a B-17G-25-BO, 4231656, which was shot down on 21 June 1944. The markings were U & R and belonged to 457th BG, 751st BS. I have an information from a relative of one crew that the name was 'The Big Chief'. Any help is deeply appreciated!
Kind regards Dimitris |
