 Connel's Special was the only "Silver Job" of the 90th BG during her stay. She was the first of the modified B-24's to make their debut in the SWPA. The choice of Colonel Rogers for his own "joy" rides over the enemy, Connel's Special led the Jolly Rogers on many missions. Primarily a "tubdunker", she sank five enemy ships and damaged another, scrapping over 7.500 tons of enemy steel. |
