Country: | Hey all-
Thanks for your contributions. Also in my own resarch I have found a text about it- in German. I have tried putting it through several internet Translantors, but none of them work. Could anyone help me on this?
Here is the text:
Waarschijnlijk het enige Vliegende Fort dat naar een koerspaard werd genoemd.
'Man O War II' was de laatste B-17 G-25-DL 42-38083 LG-V.
In maart 1944 had de machine 15 opdrachten gevlogen, op 20 nov 1944 werd ze
bij het begin van de gevechten boven Merseberg door jagers neergeschoten.
Thanx again
