It is a B-17G-35-BO of the 348th Bomb Squadron, due to the three vertical bars on the tail and the first letters of the serial number. Using the database I found 42-32036, -32041, -32057, -32061 Lucious Louise, and -32069. All joined the squadron in March 1944 and served throughout 1944.

No problem. I just wish we could narrow down the serial number even further.
