Wrecked P-38

[lowpass]

Here is a picture I found at a local flea market. It looks like there is a wrecked P-38 in the foreground and way in the back ground possibly a B-24. Just thought you guys might like to see it.

I'm gonna' guess here, but I don't see any indication of it having guns so I'd venture to say it's recon/photo.

Very nice photo! I'd love to have it for my collection.

Thanks for sharing

f-5 was the designation of the photo recon version of the p-38. no guns, just cameras & nerves of steel to fly over hot enemy areas.

Thanks for the info. Yea, I paid a $1 for it at a local flea market and its a big picture too(3.5x5). I couldn't pass it up.
