At Amazon.com, I found a video entitled "Pistol Packin' Mama - Missions of a B-17". I ordered it, but after eight weeks or so they told me they couldn't get it from their suppliers. I can't find it anywhere else either.

Does anyone have a copy of this video?

Thanks.

I don't think this video is of the 401st's "Pistol Packin Mama".  There were several B-17s throughout the Army Air Force with this nickname, and there was one more "famous".

I have seen it.  Check your local library, that is where I found the copy I saw.

I have a copy that I bought from Amazon several months ago.  It is about a mission flown by a crew in the 390th BG and is 59 minutes long.  I think it is accurate of 1943 missions.  How can I help you?

Charles, I tried to get a copy from Amazon and after a wait of almost two months they told me they could no longer get it. I'm trying again, but don't have much hope. I can't find it even listed at Borders or Barnes and Noble, nor on E-bay.

If I sent you a blank tape could you make a copy for me? I'd compensate for postage and your time.

Thanks!
