41-2668. I believe Harle Pease (MoH) flew this bird prior to getting shot down in another.
A long shot, but worth a try

They don't appear to have HAD camouflage.OldBillB17F wrote: ↑Fri Mar 15, 2019 12:21 pm For comparison, here are the other B-17Es that returned with 41-2667.
Here is 41-2444
I have the below listed in my files as 41-2444, yet they do not show a tail number. Therefore, I am not positive the following are indeed -2444.

HAD was a temporary paint scheme...I think they all were eventually painted over with the standard olive drab over gray. Steve Birdsall can correct me if I'm wrong.
