The Greatest Generation Revisited





Above, top to bottom: a man checks out a .50-caliber machine gun on a B-17 bomber from World War II in Rockford, Illinois in August, 2008; A box blur panorama from the top gunner turret on the B-17; children exit the aft door of the B-17; the "Betty Jane" P-51 Mustang. Words fail me. Lovely plane.

A post that has really gotten me interested. I love the shot of the P-51 at the bottom. A more rare and commonly overlooked early model (the P-51B/C model) but still a crucial part of aviation history.
