| B-17 Unit Photo I just picked up this large 17x7" unit photo that's too large for my scanner. I scanned what I could. Can anyone identify the unit or theater? I can't quite make out the unit patches on the left shoulder. G model B-17? Look at the last guy, far right, in the second row. Look at his hat emblem. Can anyone identify that? Regards.

| Patches look to be Eighth AF. Could you perhaps scan the rest of the photo at the same resolution? I can then try and stitch it together for you... Good luck in trying to identify the unit... it'll be tough unless someone recognizes one of these fellas. |
