Photos in this sequence taken after fire damaged left wing on 31 December 1944. The aircraft had been loaned to the 398th BG for a mission on that day, and it caught fire after landing back at Grafton Underwood due to faulty replacement of the left wingtip "tokio" fuel tank. As a result of this incident the aircraft was salvaged.
