Title: Swamp Ghost finally has a home
Post by: Monty Fowler on November 11, 2015, 06:01:37 AM

The "Swamp Ghost," the last intact B-17E Flying Fortress, finally made it out of the swamps of New Guinea to a place where it can been viewed and appreciated by millions: https://www.warhistoryonline.com/war-articles/world-war-two-b-17e-bomber-rescued-papua-new-guinea-swamp.html?src=fba&type=int&page=who (https://www.warhistoryonline.com/war-articles/world-war-two-b-17e-bomber-rescued-papua-new-guinea-swamp.html?src=fba&type=int&page=who). One of TIGHAR's earliest interests, but it didn't quite work out.
