Description

One of 5th Air Force B-25C Mitchell taking off from Del Monte on the island of Mindanao in the Philippines on Sunday 12 April 1942, en-route to hit the harbor and shipping targets at Cebu. In the three days of Royce’s raids, the Mitchells flew over twenty sorties, sinking and seriously damaging three Japanese transport ships, and shooting down three enemy fighters. In a triumph of surprise aerial strikes, all seven B-25s and their crews returned safely to base. Each copy of this aviation art print is signed by the Artist Richard Taylor and Senior Master Sergeant Vernon Main, who flew in the B25 of the 13th Squadron, 3rd Bomb Group.
