BR Rough Wear Art - Ties...

[Dany McDonald]

Wow factor has entered the building!

Looks like you have a very well made rendition, will you try to weather it a bit? Or leave it to wear and natural exposure?

It won't get much wear at all. Just for the collection. Will see how the paint ages. My Murder Inc has sucked a lot of the colour through the white paint over the years...

That's a nice jacket ! Was "Eager Beaver" an existing plane ?

Yes have the details somewhere. 77 missions, War Bond drive and scrapped in '45.

Pacific Wrecks - B-24D-7-CO "The Eager Beaver" Serial Number 41-23849

This bomber flew at least 77 bombing missions in the South West Pacific Area (SWPA) and returned to the United States for use in a war bond tour and afterwards was scrapped.

Hey 'gents, I see I am late to the party here but I would love to have any and all input. My great uncle went MIA on June 14th, 1944 in B-24J 42-73197, an aircraft in the 320th Squadron of the 90th Bomb Group, 5th Air Force. I'm putting together a tshirt to commemorate the crew and the aircraft and was hoping someone could help me find a jpeg or gif or something with the 90th, and 320th emblems. I'm taking my father up (it was his uncle who went MIA) in the B-24 Diamond Lil for a Father's Day gift, he just doesn't know it yet. Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

Have been contemplating the options for some jacket art, now that I know Ties is GTG for jackets...

Tied to the recent Mareeba Military Muster and the local themed stuff I stumbled on to one of the aircraft from the 321st Bomb Squadron, 90th Bomb Group. "The Eager Beaver"...

The 321st Squadron patch, and the Jollly Roger are options for the front left of the jacket.

The colour of the Jolly Roger would be red for the 321st. This is for the 400th Bomb Squadron.

Or just a large 'Skull and Bombs' on the left chest with Jolly Roger underneath.

COL Rogers is sporting a cracker of a moustache too, which has instantly endeared his achievements even further....

Any input from my learned peers greatly appreciated!
