Summary
DescriptionB-26 Susie-Q.jpg
English: Drawing of the Martin B-26-MA Marauder (s/n 40-1391) "Susie-Q" of the 18th Reconnaissance Squadron, 22nd Bombardment Group, USAAF, that was flown by 1/Lt James Perry Muri during the Battle of Midway on 4 June 1942. It received over 500 bullet holes and was written off after landing at Midway. The nose art with "Susie-Q" was cut out of the nose and kept as a souvenir. The rest of the B-26 was bulldozed into a barge and dumped into the lagoon off Midway.
Note: This drawing originally showed 40-1436 of the 22nd Bomb Group that was scrapped in Brisbane in January 1944. The serial number was normally painted on the tail.
