Need Info & Pictures of Naughty Nan B-24, 15th AF

Thu Mar 04, 2010 9:50 pm

Hello all,

I was wondering if anyone has any pictures on a B-24 from the 15th Airforce named "Naughty Nan". I have a footlocker from one of the crew members, Sgt. Howard E. Casey, 36594423. I do know the plane received damage and the crew flew to Switzerland. As a result they were held there until the end of the war.

I'd love to see some pictures if possible.

Kyle,

The only "Naughty Nan" I've come across is an 8th AF bird.
Pictures can be found here:

The second Naughty Nan features in the original documentary film "Target For Today" returning from a mission to Regensburg I think.

There are 2 other variations on the name but not 15th AF I'm afraid.

Maybe one of these airframes was transferred to the 15 AF later?

Naughty Nan - 15th AF, 460th BG, 761st BS, SN - 41-28997

The Forman Book says that there are known pictures of the aircraft. It has a different serial number than the other 2 aircraft of the same name (both with the 8th AF).
