Constructed as B-26G-11-MA 43-34581 by Martin at Baltimore, MD, in October 1944 it was delivered to Casablanca where it joined the Free French forces as s/n 334581, flying 37 combat missions by the end of WWII. After storage at Mont de Marsan, it was transferred to the Air France airline school at Vilgenis as a ground trainer in 1951. In June 1965 it was airfreighted by C-124 from Chateauroux AB to the USAF Museum where it initially went on display with its true serial, but by 1982 was repainted as now seen in the marks of a B-26B of the 387th BS/556th BG, 9th AF

This Marauder is in reality 43-34581 and was flown in combat by the Free French during the final months of WWII. It is now on display at the National Museum of the USAF as 'Shootin in', a Ninth AF B-26B assigned to the 387th Bomb Group in 1945.
