8th AF Tail Codes

I've been asked to display a bunch of aircraft models at a local museum, and I need to label them properly. I have the old Monogram 1/48th B-17 I built about 30 years ago... Tail Codes are a black A in a white triangle, individual a/c R, three letter code LG R. Can someone tell me what squadron it was assigned to? I believe it was the 90th Bomb Group....

I've done several Google searches, and can't seem to find a comprehensive index for these markings. I'm pretty sure it's out there... if you have the URL for such a thing, please forward it.

Thanks in advance,

Don H.

Al,

Well, yeah! It sure doesn't get any clearer than that.

Thank you.

Thank you. I'll try to get to a copy. It's one of those things that you know are out there, avoid getting because you won't use it too often; then need it, buy it, and never use it again. This, of course, is true of some of my favorite books!

LG would be 322nd B.S., 91st B.G. Pip Moss I used to feel cheap 'cause I had no signature.
