Chester, I'd love to hear more from the accident report.

Did your father share any details with you about the ditching?

Actually there were a large number of "RB-17's" - though not all may have been so designated. I have identified at least 105 in my database of post-war B-17's (including those so far ID'd from Project Casey Jones). They were stationed all over the world and photo-mapped everything from the arctic to the South Pacific.
