No Quarter Posted December 22, 2019 Share #1 Posted December 22, 2019 Bought this photo today of a bomber crew celebrating the return of their 50th mission. Is there any way to identify the aircraft based o this photo. The only part of the name of the plane in view is "Hells." Thanks for looking, Jacob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Rooster Posted December 22, 2019 Share #3 Posted December 22, 2019 Not sure about the aircrafts name but it looks like a B-25. Small crew and that hatch on the right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nic Posted December 22, 2019 Share #4 Posted December 22, 2019 Not sure about the aircrafts name but it looks like a B-25. Small crew and that hatch on the right. I would agree. I suspect this is a B-25 crew from one of the groups that flew with the 57th Bomb Wing, 12th Air Force in the MTO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flyboy53 Posted December 23, 2019 Share #6 Posted December 23, 2019 Aircraft is a B-25. Notice the steps leading to the bomb bay. Also suspect the photo is late 1944, early 1945 because the crews are wearing OD B-15 flight jackets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
