Anyone know the ID. If I recall, it's a PBJ and came from the Marines.
It's at the Air Museum in front of the Army Guard Aviation Facility.

Also formerly known as Tokyo Express with Earl Reinert - thanks so much for posting this one, Jack! :D

BTW, what's with the main wheels - are they from an A-26?

I was a wreck when they got in and was in a accident on the way.
They've done a good job with very little resources and take good care of it.
The Doolittle Memorial it's a part of is very nice!!!

Interesting wheels. They look to be of the PBY sort.

I think it looks pretty cool. Good for them for getting her upright.

It's a TB-25J. The Marines had it displayed as a replica PBJ.
