A Limited Edition print by Nicolas Trudgian featuring B-24 Liberators of the 467th Bomb Group - published in support of The Memorial Trust of The Second Air Division USAAF. For bomber crews, any daylight bombing mission almost certainly meant combat. If it wasn't the attentions of the determined Luftwaffe fighter pilots, it would be an aerial carpet of flak that welcomed them en route to target - and again, on the journey home. On most missions the Eighth Air Force aircrews had to contend with both. Playing a major role in the great raids on Germany and other targets in occupied Europe from early in 1944, equipped with the Consolidated B-24 Liberator, the USAAF Second Air Division flew no fewer than 95,048 sorties. Based in Norfolk, England, the crews also attacked targets far distant in Norway, Poland and Rumania.
Published in support of the Memorial Trust of the Second Air Division in Norwich England, Nicolas Trudgian's Limited Edition recreates a scene showing B-24s of the 467th Bomb Group under attack by Me262 jet interceptors on February 25th, 1945.
Each print in Nicolas Trudgian's Limited Edition, End Game, is signed by 10 distinguished veteran pilots and aircrew who flew B-24s in combat with the 2nd Air Division in Europe: S/Sgt Vernon R. Swain Captain George E. Hammond T/Sgt Perry Morse Lt. Col James P. Dyke Colonel Charles H. Booth Lt. Col Robert Dubrowsky S/Sgt C.W. Will Lundy Captain Everett R. Jones Captain J. Richard Butler Lt. Col Elmo W. Geppelt.
