Thanks for the ping. I didn’t remember this part of the Battle of Midway, but I will remember it now. I think there is a Martin B-26 in the Smithsonian with the name “Flak Bait.”

Yes, Flak Bait is in the Smithonsonia. My last visit there several years ago, only the forward part of the fuselage was on display. I don’t know if the entire plane has been re-assembled and put into the new A&S museum at Dulles Airport.
