Subject: B-17 forward guin positions
From: Guy Alcala

Thats interesting; you'd have thought that every bomber would need a
Norden,
because what if by PURE chance the four lead bombers were shot down!?,

We put up 56 B-26's in every formation. Each had a Norden and behind each
Norden was a trained Bombardier-Navigator MOS 1035.
