Awesome nose art. The other side of the airplane had another view of the nose art lady.
My father (at the time, 1Lt PW “Bill” Barker) flew missions in Fools Paradise from Kwajalein in July 1944 as a co-pilot and command pilot. I have his combat diary which describes his missions, etc. if there is any interest I can get a copy to you. Paul Barker by email at pbarker@pcisys.net
Thanks for putting up this, studying your website I’m astonished how very much time you might have placed into it.
My dad flew in that plane too. He was the tail gunner. I have its picture with the crew on my wall. Do you have any photos?
