Chris 8/23/2001 4:12:41 PM | I saw this inquiry on the Mighty Eighth board...thought I would ask here. Does anyone know if bombers carried these? The reason this was asked was because of an excerpt seen in the pilot manual for the B-17, under ditching instructions, in which it states that the bombadier is to hand the "pigeon cage" to the waist gunner???!!! Can anyone throw some lite on this? |
