The History of Our Logo:
The tank with wings was selected as the logo to represent our museum after doing a Veteran’s History Project interview with Mr. Edward Safford. The logo was the actual nose-art on the B-17 that Mr. Safford was on with the 569th Squadron, 390 Bomber Group. Mr. Safford’s original B-17 was involved in a crash. The captain considered the replacement B-17, to fly like a tank. The flight crew came up with the picture of the flying tank and named the airplane the General Sherman.
We felt this nose-art represented the diversity we are trying to bring out in our museum. If anyone has any more history on this particular piece of nose-art, please let us know.
