| Does anyone have any information on a B-17 named &quot;Tail Wind&quot; that supposedly served in the 614th Sq.? I'm looking for some information on an Arnold Bruce who was a gunner on this plane.<br/> <br/> Thank you<br/>

| There are 3 identified B-17's with this name.  One from the 603BG, 368th Sq, 447th BG 710th BS, and the last is unknown BG/BS with no serial number.<br/> <br/> This is from the B-17 Nose Art Directory.<br/> <br/> Found no A. Bruce in the listings of the 614th Squadron or anyother of the squadrons.<br/> <br/> Do you have additional info that might help locate what you are looking for.<br/> <br/> Don Byers<br/> <br/> <br/>

| According to the Project Bits and Pieces booklet on the 1st Air Division, there were four groups with B-17s named &quot;Tail Wind&quot; as two words, with or without the quotes, the 392nd, 467th, 458th, and 446th.  There were five groups with Tail Wind as the one word &quot;Tailwind&quot;.  They were the 306th, 398th, 445th, 447th, and the 487th.  There was even a Tailwind II in the 467th.  Don and I have pretty much the some references for crew members, so I can't help out there......<br/>
