Description
B17 Series
B17 – 381st Bombardment Group
Part of the 381st B17 Group en-route from Ridgewell to their target in Northern Europe some time in 1944. In this instance led by the 534th Squadron the Group took part in many of the major activities of WW2, having a particular input to ‘Big Week’ and the classic operations during D-day and the Battle of the Bulge. The clear weather and sunlit aircraft present a settled picture but it is really ‘the calm before the storm’ – as demonstrated by so many 8th Air Force operations.
