WWII Hell's Angels

During World War II, there was a famed B-17 aircraft named Hell's Angels. The men who worked together to keep the plane flying over Hitler's occupied Europe, those of the U.S. Army Air Force's 303rd Bombardment Group, were the first in the 8th Air Force to complete twenty-five missions from their base in Molesworth, England. These men, or "Hell's Angels" as they became known, went on to complete forty missions without ever turning back to base for mechanical failure of the plane. The Hell's Angels are recognized by the USAF as the first B-17 to complete 25 combat missions in the European Theater of Operations (ETO) on 13 May 1943, six days before the Memphis Belle and 12 days after Delta Rebel 2.
