The lucky dogs of the 65th Bomb Squadron pose with the individual they have ascertained to best represent the unit’s interests, Miss Myrna Dell. The date is July 21, 1950, the place, Davis-Monthan AFB, Arizona, the aircraft, a Boeing B-50. When not fulfilling her role as “Miss Bombshell”, Myrna Dell was a regular in Hollywood films of the era (she once co-starred with Ronald Reagan).
In WWII the 65th BS was one of the squadrons of the 43rd BG, B-24s, in the Pacific. They had some of the best and most lavish ‘nose art’ of the entire AAF.
