B-24 "Booby Trap"

Thu Dec 22, 2005 5:51 pm

Does anyone know anything or have any information about the B-24J Liberator "Booby Trap" which flew with the Jolly Rogers, such as mission tallies, crew members or even photos of the plane. I have only found one photo, that of the nose art.

Mike,

I E-mailed the Bonnie and son Jason, Dilworth in Nampa, Idaho (who are walking 90th BG encyclopedias) your question. I'd guess they will answer soon.

Meanwhile I'd think a 90th Bomb Group or Jolly Rogers B-24 google search would yield much.

As noted on the page linked above, the other side of the the ship carried 'Miss Jolly Roger' and the ship was a B-24J-150-CO, serial 44-40193, of the 321st BS.

I recently sold this photo of 'Booby Trap'...

I believe I found this image on the 90th BG website...

I know I have at least one image of the other side of the ship with the 'Miss Jolly Roger' artwork that's a helluvot nicer than what's on B-24 Best Web. I'll try to scan that for you before the Christmas Monster consumes me this weekend!
