Description
The Long Road Home
With formation discipline slightly relaxed as the Group leaves the threat of Luftwaffe attacks behind a huge tract of sky is painted by the �Mighty 8th�. The various squadrons of the B17 Group show several �holes� in the formation make-up as less fortunate aircraft have failed to complete the trip. Also relaxed are the escorting P51s at the end of a long mission for single-seat fighters - the whole panorama illustrates the huge impact that the US 8th Air Force made on the European WW2 campaign.
