This isn’t right. My grandpa flew this plane from Poltava to Italy and flew a few more missions. His plane was incorrectly marked as destroyed on the ground but I have photos to prove its survival.

Hello Ostrander,
thank you. I will update the history. Do you now the correct history of this B-17?
And can you share a copy of the photo with me and my web site?
If you, please sent to: info@b17flyingfortress.de
Cheers
