Accidents and Mishaps

B24JSH 42-51491 Rackheath 

This 791st Squadron PFF lead aircraft graphically displays the potentially lethal damage that flak could inflict on the thin aluminum body of the B24. This damage is in the rear waist section occupied by the gunners and believed to have occurred during the last months of 1944. There is not thought to have been any casualties as a result.
