FYI: The USN flew a version of the B-25 as a "Patrol Bomber". Their version was known as the PBJ (Patrol Bomber, "J" which was the letter designation for North American Aviation.) They do refer to the plane as a "PBJ" in the movie.

Well, see then, it happened just like that. And I thought all along they were just making it up for the movies.
