I was wondering if anyone could share some pictures of the 11th Army Airforce during WW2 in the Aleutian campaign? I was just reading some articles about the battles that took place and I was looking for some pictures of what type of aircraft the 11th air corp was flying during that time. But I can't find anything does anyone on here have something?

I think B-24s, P-39s and P-40s would get you off to a good start.
