| Hey guys, at my local Barnes and Noble, I hit the magazine section, and came across Military Aircraft Monthly (Vol 9 Iss 3), and has a very detailed article about Monday, Sept 11, 1944 with the 100th BG, 8th Air Force. It is a very good read, with lots of nice, clear photo's.<br/> Now, I am not sure if you guys are "only" doing research on teh 401st, but thought that you guys at teh very least would be interested in this article <br/> <br/> Here are some numbers I was able to pull off some B-17G's, in flight and in formation no less:<br/> 338945 (the 8 MIGHT be a 0)<br/> 48614  (the 8 might be a 0 and the 6 might be a 5)<br/> <br/> <br/> Some close up's of "Mud in yer eye" 42-397834 XR*J and "The Reluctant Dragon", B-17G-75-BD, 43-38011 XR*H<br/> <br/> Also tail section of B-17B, 42-102657 that crashed into a school in Kovarska<br/> <br/> REAL nice photo, in formation B-17F, 42-30604<br/> <br/> The story also has some very detailed info on some other B-17's: <br/> 42-31412 EP*G "Mason and Dixon" <br/> 44-6089 LN*B <br/> 42-97806 XR*D "Now An' Then"<br/> 42-97834 XR*J<br/> 43-37863 LN*A<br/> 43-37880 LN*E<br/> 42-97154<br/> 43-38076<br/> 43-38047<br/> 42-102695<br/> 43-38043<br/> 43-3517 LD*T<br/> 42-38161<br/> 43-37823 XR*V<br/> 42-97334<br/> <br/> <br/> Anyways, thought you guys might want to know. <br/><br/><span style='color: #0000FF'>Derrick Morris, Grandson of S/Sgt  Engr/Top Turret William "Dale" Sartor, 615th BS 401st BG, "Mary Alice"</span><br/>
