A skin for Milton Shupe's B-26 Marauder
This B-26G belonged to the 654th Bomb Squadron (Recon), 25th Bomb Group (Recon), 9th U.S. Army Air Force. In the spring of of 1944 the 25th BG(R) received four B-26G's modified for night photography. They were painted all or mostly glossy black and used by the 654th BS(R) for "Noball" missions, to provide early warning of V-1 missile attacks. They began operations in early August and by late September the Noball missions were ended, as the V-1 was no longer considered a threat. This plane has its undersides and sides painted glossy black while its topsides retain the original olive drab.
