The Practice of illustrating aircraft in colourful, and even fanciful design was nothing new and the 467th BG(H) were no exception among the 8th Air Force in carrying on a long held tradition in painting all manner of images on the ample "canvas" provided by the long nose section of the B24. These examples range from a simple name to sometimes ornate and painstakingly sophisticated illustrations that adorned a number of the aircraft. The female form and names were a common favourite while others displayed cartoon characters of the time and sometimes witty and pithy comment. Thanks to Kevin Coolidge for access to a number of examples from the 467th BG(H) Association Archive included among those below.
