"Nine O Nine" awaits
her next mission over occupied Europe. Part of the 91st Bomb
Group, 323rd Squadron, this B-17 went on to complete a record
mission tally of 140 without an abort or loss of a single crew
member. She started operations in February 1944. By April 1945
"Nine O Nine" had flown an extraordinary 1,129 hours.
This aircraft and crew represented just one of many who fought
in war-torn skies for the freedom we now enjoy". |
