P-47 Thunderbolts circle before landing above a crashed Boeing
B-29 Superfortress belonging to the "Jolly Rogers" of the 6th
Bomb Group, XXI Bomber Command. The nose art and name
of the bomber have been painted out; however, part of the
name, "MILK," as in "Milk Run" or another variation,
is visible at the lower left.

:rolleyes:  Sheesh Brady...

Hehehe, that's the caption of the comon source we use with Brady. I put the caption as an irony as it cracked me up, I don't think those are P47Ns.:D

Yep, Frenchy being the ever P47 lover says those are P47s.

ARLO will be posting that those are Spitfires flying over a wrecked Mossie.

Don't you just love it when some idiot writes a book and can't even correctly identify the aircraft in his own photos? :rofl

Those "P-47 Thunderbolts" are P-51Ds, and they're not circling, but entering the break. That means they've flown down the length of the runway and are now peeling off to enter the downwind leg of their landing....

My regards,

Widewing
