Hi guys, I'm new here.
Just entered the forum during a search on the aircraft mentioned in thread's title.
I've found a few photos on the various websites, and found this thread too: http://www.warbirdinformationexchange.org/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=35104&start=0&hilit=valkyrie, but unfortunately, the link to the photo of 'Valkyrie' posted there doesn't work.
Did someone save that pic and if so, could share it again?
I'll also be grateful for any pointers to the printed sources which include photos of this particular and beautifully adorned Marauder.

Best regards,
Maciej

Thanks Mike, I'm aware of this site and these 2 scans - as far as I know, the colour one is a coloured b/w picture.
BTW, the site includes many high resolution photos from NARA, possibly taken from Fold3 (ex-footnote.com), but unfortunately there are no photos of 'Valkyrie' from this source.

Judging from the mission marks visible on the forward fuselage, at least 80.

Still looking for photos ;)
