Default Douglas B-18 Bolo 5th Bg Hawaii - 1 attachment

Considering the observation that "To send crews out in such a plane
against a well-armed, determined foe would have been nothing short of
suicidal"...that skull was just as relevant to the well-being of the crew
as it was to those they bombed.


The same could also be said of the B-23 Dragon, which evolved from the B-18.
Obsolete by the time production began, only 38 were built before it was
relegated to anti-submarine duty like its predecessor.
