THREE guys? Wow I'm impressed. Was one in the nose? ;^)
There was a modification of the P-38 that added a passenger seat in the nose.
The troops gave it the nickname "droop-snoot". Since it replaced the guns, it
was not a popular mod with the pilots. The military radio gear lived in a hole
behind the pilot and was quite substantial. Remove that, and you can fit a
rather cramped seat back there.

If you're not part of the solution, you can make a lot of money prolonging
the problem.
