Re the B-17 Titled “The Tribe” at this link – think the name is wrong and wanted to pass this along as an FYI: https://b17flyingfortress.de/en/b17/43-38370-the-tribe/
The actual name of the aircraft is “The Pawnee Tribe”, not “The Tribe”. Can see it in your photo, as well as other photos on line that match this serial number. Again, just an FYI and thank you very much!
