Found picture B-17F-50-DL
42-3346 that my friends dad was assigned to. The „A“ of 91st BG has been subdued & a white „H“ has been added below the s/n on the tail. I believe he told me they were assigned to weather recon & VIP transport 1944 – 1945. Pic shows no name on nose, prop hub on number 1 looks like it may be red or dark blue. Inboard number 2 hub natural aluminum. Could be a few new cowl flaps on number 1 also.
