While this does not directly deal with the CCKW I have seen a pic of one in the previews for the show so I will post it.
The FOX News Channel show: War Stories with Oliver North is airing this Sunday night 8 pm EST. Show is about B-24's and their crews.
Looks pretty good. There is a preview on the the Fox News Channel Web page.

I have a photo of a CCKW on the Torreta, Italy airfield made in 1944. It was the home of the 461st Bomb Group Heavy, which flew B-24's. I will forward it to Bill. Maybe he can post it.
