En route to bomb the German aircraft factory at Romilly-sur-Seine, 50 miles south-east of Paris, on December 20, 1942, the 91st Bomb
Group's B-17s come under heavy air attack by Luftwaffe fighters. Skipper of the Memphis Belle, Bob Morgan, unflinchingly holds his aircraft steady for his gunners as an Fw190, 20mm cannons blazing, comes flashing through the formation at
a heart-stopping 400mph. High off the starboard wing, a second enemy fighter peels over to begin its attack. The Memphis Belle will survive today and go on to become the first 8th Air Force bomber to complete a 25-mission tour.
Simon Atack's outstanding painting recreates a moment of intense drama as the 324th Bomb Squadron come under attack just short of the target.
Every print is individually signed by the most celebrated American bomber pilot of WWII, Colonel Bob Morgan, skipper of the Memphis Belle.
