B-17 in the Pacific

[winner1]

I flew as a Tail Gunner on B-17 Airdraft during the Battle of Midway\
Two B-17E Aircraft
41-9156 "Uncle Biff"
41-2415 No Nose Art
Both planes survived Battle of Midway attached to 72nd Sq 5th Bomb Gp - later transferred to 11th Bomb Group and were flown extensively in the SW Pacific and Australia Area/ Both survived the war and wee de-miled at Hawaiin Air Depot in l944.
Any one having pictures of either plane, would love to discuss

Welcome to the forum Joe. I'd love to hear more about your experiences if you're keen to tell us a few memories of war in the Pacific.
