B29
Superfortress Then and Now
It has been said that the B-29's won W.W.II and saved countless
lives because our men never had to land on Japanese soil. This
war was won in the air and turned the tide on the entire
war. We Americans owe the lifestyle we are living NOW to
those who fought THEN... an important message that has failed
to be delivered to those of us who are fortunate enough to have
never lived through war. This mailing list is dedicated
to those men and women and this fabulous machine! |
ArmyAirForces.com
is
a research resource that lists over 100 separate Heavy and Very

Thanks to Scott Burris for the use of the Square P logo used throughout
the 39th Bomb Group site. |

Noseart Screensaver - this screen saver was created
by Oscar Everitt, it contains about 30 images of noseart that
Oscar "colorized from black & while photos. As
with some noseart appearing on B-29s, these images do contain

problems. |
