I’m doing research on 42-31575 “Mizpah” and am looking for info/photos of her, thanks.

My grandfather-in-law, Jerry Petska, Jr., was the engineer/top turret gunner on the “Mizpah” (’43-’44). I have a couple of pictures of the plane, one very similar to the above, and another with him in the pilot’s seat (21 “bombs” visible on below the window). If @B17FlyingFortress is interested in these photos, reach out to the email above. Happy to share what I have.
