The video on this page is NOT 44-85841. The video was of the last plane to roll off of the Seattle line which was 43-39508.

I was given this information and cannot verify it. Can you help? “To commemorate Corporal Dantzler, the last B-17 aircraft produced by Lockheed Aircraft Corporation in Burbank, California, was christened “Arthur M. Dantzler.” This was supposedly the final B-17 from the three joint manufacturers – — their 27,731st aircraft — was named in honor of his memory.”
