    The Vietnam reference was why I asked. Found four of them on our boat one time. Attached to some Aussies.

    All Allied bombers are liberators but if you ask Herr Goebbels, they're terrorfliegers!

    Two p-38s and and PV1 Ventura in the center. The p-38s are easy, the Ventura is more of a guess.
