The Radio call letters for this aircraft were LL-S
not OR-L/LL-L as listed in the Osbourne / Freeman Fort Log Entry.
Here’s a link to a picture of 43-38843 which is part of the stunning colour photography of the John W. Allen collection held by the Museum of Flight digital archives in Seattle. https://digitalcollections.museumofflight.org/items/show/51795#?c=0&m=0&s=0&cv=0&xywh=-95%2C37%2C1446%2C772
This aircraft is believed to have been named „Skipper“, but unlike other 91st BG aircraft that returned back to the United States at the end of the war, 43-38843 was transferred to the 92nd Bomb Group that was scheduled for occupation duties and was involved in the post war „Green Project“ to relocate displaced civilians across Europe.
