About These Posters

   Each poster in this 3-ttile set commemorates the bombardment and reconnaissance wings that flew an individual aircraft.  They are designed as a matched set so each can be displayed individually or they can be combined for an attractive wall grouping. All follow the same format.  There is a magnificent illustration of the aircraft accompanied by a brief operational history.  The bulk of the poster is patches worn by the wings during the time it flew the aircraft.  Below each, a caption cites longest used name (same wings changed names over the years), it's primary base, the years it flew the aircraft and its flying squadrons.  Great reference source for military buffs and patch collectors.
