| When we were training on B17s at Great Falls,Mont.,I recall the 612th sqdn was called &quot;Martin's Wranglers&quot;<br/> after a bear cub that was kept on leash in the office<br/>

| As far back as I can determine, the 614th was known as the Lucky Devils, a name reflected in their unit insignia.  I know that was true of the unit in later years when it was equipped with F-4s and F-16s, but I'm not sure how far back in history that moniker carried.<br/>
