Look at the firepower in the front dorsal turret of the B-29 - this Superfortress allegedly shot down two Japanese aircraft and saw combat in the Korean War as well as WWII. She later served as a WB-29 weather aircraft. This photo is copyright © Peter de Jong, and may not be used or published in any way without permission.
