The B-26 was often called the "Widowmaker" 
because the wing was too small for the aircraft
and Martin knew it but rushed into production anyway,
filling a lot of premature graves.
Truman, before he was VP, tore a hole 
in Martin's rear-end over it.

Darn near everything you might want to know
(and some you didn't know you wanted to know :)
about the B-26:
