Flak-Bait Nose Art T-Shirt

Flak-Bait is a Martin B-26 Marauder that holds the USAAF record for most bombing missions survived during World War II. During the course of its 202 missions (207 if decoy missions are included), Flak-Bait certainly lived up to its name, being shot with over 1000 holes, returning twice on one engine (once with the disabled engine on fire). A veteran of D-Day and the Battle of the Bulge, Flak-Bait is currently under preservation at the Udvar-Hazy Center. Using contemporary photographs & documents, we've recreated this iconic aircraft's Nose Art in stunning detail, including the brush strokes, time-worn paint & weathering that tells the story of this historic aircraft and the men that flew her.
