You've Ad It
« on: December 18, 2022, 03:38:44 AM »
Thanks to Lyric1 for finding the info for this skin, which I have done for both the MA and the upcoming Battle of Paris scenario.

"You've Ad It" began flying missions over occupied Europe with the 479th Bomb Squadron in January 1944. Initially it was flown by the crew of Lt. T. R. Pearcy and coded 7I-A but when the rear fuselage was badly damaged it was sent for repair and the crew then flew a new B-26 they christened "Gratis Gladys". With the rear fuselage donated from 7I-X "Juanita" fitted "You've Ad It" resumed operations, this time with the crew of Lt. William E. Harrison.

Superb Greebo!   I  just got the double entendre of the name and nose art.
