42-37969 “Old Irongut” was piloted by my Grandfather Jonathan “Jack” Youk Jr. Seeing these pictures of the B-17 he flew brings back a lot of great memories of his war stories. The men who flew on these planes were heroes and truly members of the Greatest Generation.

Questin Youk: do you have any info or pictures of your grandfather? I believe my grandfather was flight engineer/ top turret gunner on this aircraft. Would love to know more.
