Summary

[edit]
Description
English: c/n 108-47512. Built in 1945 as B-25J-30-NC for the USAAF with the serial 44-86758. She was converted TB-25K in 1951, later sold off in 1958 and became N9643C with Texas based Rockdale Flying Service. She joined the Confederate Air Force in 1976 and flew again in 1978. She remains flying with the now renamed Commemorative Air Force, and is painted to represent a PBJ-1J of US Marine Bombing Squadron VMB-612. The unit flew PBJ-1Js in the Pacific during 1945 and were initially based on Iwo-Jima to carry out night-time anti-shipping missions. They later moved to Okinawa and flew on daylight bombing raids over the Japanese mainland.

“Devil Dog” is seen on a ‘bombing run’ during the 2019 Wings over Houston Airshow. Ellington Airport, Houston, Texas.
