B-17 Flying Fortresses over Ploesti

A pillar of smoke reaches the height of these Boeing B-17 Flying Fortresses of MAAF after they had dropped their bombs on the oil refineries at Ploesti, Rumania on 28 July 44. Numerous flak bursts can be seen in the back ground, as the enemy desperately attempts to halt the bombers from their insistent bombing of the Hun's oil supplys. 2d Bomb Group
