On November 29th, 1943, a large group of B-17 Flying Fortresses were on a mission to take out strategic targets in the industrial city of Bremen, Germany. Inside a B-17F from the 96th Bomb Group named Rikki Tikki Tavi, was Staff Sergeant Eugene Moran. As a tail gunner, Moran was in the thick of the fight against the swarm of enemy fighters. When the Rikki Tikki Tavi experienced a malfunction and slid back from the formation the German's swarmed in with Bf 109s and FW190s. The fortress was eventually cut into two pieces, with Moran still inside the tail. Some of the research for this film was found in the great book Tailspin by John Armbruster. To find out more you should definitely get a copy.
