B-17 Flying Fortress over Italy

1944-04-02

The raid over Steyr, Austria, on 2 April 1944 wasn't just a milk run - it was the real thing! Here, a Boeing B-17 "Flying Fortress" of the 97th Bomb Group, 15th Air Force, has just turned off the runway at its home base in Italy and a wounded crew member is being removed from the plane and transferred to a waiting ambulance.
