I gotta say, as a woman (and a Christian!), I’m not offended. The planes were named and painted up as a morale booster.....maybe a tad risque, but not vulgar.

The Enola Gay was named after the pilot’s mother!

Glamorous Glennis was Chuck Yeager's wife.

Makes history a lot more fun than "cigar shaped bombing aircraft" or "Orange".
