Mike, "Dinah" was later re-named "Dinah Might". There were several B-26 aircraft with "Dinah" serving with different bomb groups. This one serving with the 397th BG / 597th BS was 42-96114, coded 9F-D, survived the war, and was condemned for salvage in March 1946. I have the pilot listed as Lt. W V Flowers. I suspect that Lt. R D Tollett was the bombardier/navigator, as his name is inscribed on the nose section near the bombardiers position.
