Product Description

This item has a limited edition certificate included.

This San Diego built Liberator carried the nickname Ball of Fire The III to the port. At this time here Major Joseph Tate piloted the aircraft although it was to be later piloted by Frank Kilcheski and carried a dual nickname of War Baby. First test flown on 26 December 1942, the aircraft was delivered to the AAF four days later and subsequently flown by Tate on the 1st August 1943 Tidal Wave mission against oil refineries in Ploesti, Romania.
