http://www.457thbombgroup.org/aircraft_pictures/42-31520_42-31594_42-47662_42-32101.html This photo of a B-17G taking off is truly A/C Serial No. 42-31594. The Serial Number cannot be seen on the Vertical Stabilizer but, the letter G on the Vertical Stabilizer is peculiar to this Aircraft and the name is mis-spelled! Should read ... "Sweat'er Out" as to in the term ... "sweating-out" the Aircraft's return from a mission. Cheers, Alan Morton
