Is this a Maryland or Baltimore? Would anybody have any guesses to the story behind the photo. From the photo album of a SAAF 15 sqn. photog, said to be taken over Fiume or Trieste. S/n looks like CM723.

15 Squadron South African Air Force (SAAF) flew the Baltimore IIIA, IV and V and were active in the Italian Theatre with the Baltimore. The Mark III was the most numerous of the Baltimore variants operated by the SAAF.
The Maryland’s operated by the SAAF carried the serials 1601 to 1682. They were taken out of service in 1944.
