Awesome album. Love the nose art photos especially the one with the Bill Maulden GI Joe comic character. Forgot his name? Was it Willy?

That is a solid album for a group flying B-25s in the Mediterranean. The nose art photos are very interesting. Well done artwork. A few of those planes spent a lot of time in the air, quite a few mission bombs painted on them. A couple of aerial photos taken over Italy as well?
