I have just recently discover these pictures of my great uncle. I
believe the aircraft to be a b-17 or a b-24. I don't have a lot of
experience identifying planes of this era. any help would be
appreciated

North American B-25 Mitchell, probably a B-25G. Only WWII aircraft
to mount a 75mm cannon in the nose.


I think you'll find that the Henschel Hs 129 B-3 carried a 75mm gun
in the nose, but not very successfully.


The Mosquito XVIII carried a 6-pdr Molins gun, but that was 57mm calibre.
It gave U-boat crews something to think about, though!
