My personal favorite from the 401st BG !
Love the fine detail from the B-17 crew of the 401st BG based at Deenethorpe …. Triangle S !!! Back in the 1980’s located most of the crew and enjoyed researching their aircraft and missions. The 401st hand some talented artist on its base for sure !!! Lets see some of your jackets you might have in your collection !

Amiens Raid film at Imperial War Museum
I came across some old photo’s took way long ago at the Imperail Museum from one of my trips to the UK…. when I first remember seeing the footage from the actual raid on the Amiens Prison in Feb of 1944. This experience really took me off to discovering and reading all that I could on the mission . I believe this was even before this forum was formed…????? Road his several times just to see the film !!! I was hooked …in a good historical way !!!! Lifted these shots off an old HI 8 tape !
Anypne remember this from the Imperial War Museum …early 90’s???
