Schweinfurt Again
by Keith Ferris

Boeing B-17 Flying Fortresses and the men who flew that aircraft faced constant danger over targets like Schweinfurt, which had claimed 163 bombers on missions previous to the one pictured here. Thankfully, neither men nor aircraft of the 303rd Bomb Group were lost on this October 9, 1944, mission. In fact, the foreground B-17 named Thunder Bird, pictured here on her 80th mission, would go on to complete 116 missions before her 1945 retirement.
