Clearly a product of Al Merkling's vivid imagination, this camera-equipped F-7A version of the B24 was assigned to 1Lt Roy Hunt and flew overseas from Hunter Field, GA, on 10th February 1944. The aircraft is believed to have flown its first mission on 6th May to Hollandia with Lt Hunt at the controls but poor weather prevented any photos being brought back. So far only three other missions have been established through May into June and further information is sought.
