OT: WWII USAAF bomber painting

Hello gang,

I'm trying to locate a fairly famous painting showing a B-17 or B-24 having landed after a raid on Ploesti. It's got the crew, who have just disembarked relaxing, a wounded crew member being loaded up into the ambulance, with a lovely warm sunset background. I believe there is a female medic attending the wounded airman - but I could be wrong.

I'd say it was a Robert Taylor painting, but searching for him hasn't yielded anything. I want to say the name was "crew home safe" - but I'm really on a limb.

I think I recall seeing it advertized on the back of a Warbirds magazine, or some such magazine.

Anyone know the painting, with a reasonably good high-quality image of it?

thanks,

dl
 
Hello S,

Has the right tone and feel - "Maximum effort" is close - but not the one.

Thanks, though! :ernae:
