And who could forget that song or singer?  Your note made me dig a bit deeper for the Betty Grable connection. This is what I found.
Apparently, both the name and the Betty Grable connection date back only to 1978 or later. Still, it's a great tribute to the 1940s - plane, name, pin-up art and all. Stu |

For reference, the above message is a reply to a message where: Lest we forget the genesis of that B-17s name, this was the reason GIs loved it. Harvey |
