Hi,

I was given some old pics of some planes and a ship, but cannot ID the plane.

The planes have:

Fout props
Single tail
Ball turret in the nose w/ two guns
Ball turret aft of wing
Observation dome on top
MN-26 loop

D67 on fusilage.

I also have a pic of a flight of 6 like planes with EH on the vertical
stabilizer.

This is on the back of one pic:

Complement  11 men, 13 on patrol
6 Turrets 500 rounds 50 cal. 1000 rounds in tail
200 mile cruise range
2600 gallons fuel

Any IDs?

--------------

Also, the ship pic:

Warship, 2 stacks, very roughly 500' long
Two turrets forward, one or two aft 2 guns per turret
Has number 776 painted on bow
US flag, search RADAR at masthead

Any ideas?

Thanks,

-John
