PLOESTI, THE VITAL MISSION ROBERT TAYLOR LTD ED Print

  

Col Leon Johnson aboard the damaged Suzy Q emerges through an inferno of intense ground fire and dense palls of acrid burning oil. More seriously hit and smoking, another B-24 Liberator completes its bombing run. By the end of that first day of May 1943, the Ploesti oil fields were in ruins and the B-24 crews of the 8th and 9th Air Forces had dealt a vital blow to the Axis war machine. It has never been framed and is in mint condition. Paper size is 34 x 24.
