Silver Dollar

Many on social media would have you believe that a B-17 can land without a tail.  They would like you to think that a commonly circulated photo of an airborne Fortress with the tail missing succeeded in landing with zero casualties.  This is far from the truth, and if we're not careful we will misremember their real story over time.  Today, we remember the men that sacrificed their lives in this crippled bird.
