Sunday I was able to got over to the Glendale Airpark, where this beautiful B-17, Sentimental Journey (complete with nose art!) was parked for display. This gorgeous ship is based out of Mesa, Arizona and is flown by the Commemorative Air Force (CAF) to different venues and in conjunction with other birds to keep the history of air combat alive.

This particular bomber was delivered to the Army Air Corps in 1945, but never saw combat. It was, however, fully fitted with all gun positions, and a rack of (dummy, I hope) bombs in the bomb bay.

It was really great for a history hog like me to be able to visit an old bird like this. I look forward to other tours, and will share them with you.

Thank you for stopping by, God bless you all, Wear Red on Fridays, and support Warriors for Innocence!
