I'm a little late to this discussion. Was doing some research on the "Strawberry Bitch" B-24 and found this discussion with a couple pics of the aircraft in the Museum. In my research I found four wartime photos of the left side of the "Bitch" and there never was a female figure on that side. Two of the photos can be found on the Museum's web site.

Not too many that I've seen unless you go to the more prominent ones. Only a spattering here and there and they typically are shells.
