Default Re: WW2 nose art *caution for younger viewers*

Here is a picture of myself (at 15) and some friends after backpacking approximately 15 miles up a mountain to reach a WWII B-17 that crashed in heavy snow during a training exercise. Interesting items I found were an airmen's leather helmet, a boot and the radio. The airplane missed clearing this mountain by less then 100 feet and the remains scattered over 200 yards with the largest piece we found pictured behind us.
