IMAGE""ALTHOUGH ONE MOTOR'S GONE"--That happens to be the case with this "Flying fortress" of the 91st Bomb Group, 8th Air force, though alone now, was part of a formation of heavies dispatched to attack German-held target at Cognac, France, 31-Dec-43. As seen from the rear, the prop of the disabled engine is motionless as the other motors hum and the Fortress carries on (Altitude 18,000 feet)." - B-17F 42-31076 "Chief ly's Son" 323BS, 91BG, 8AF USAAF.
