Turns out this is same exact photo used on the cover of the book "Masters of the Air" as mentioned before.
Were these airmen identified?

Just finished listening to Masters Of The Air about the B17's in WW2. In 43 you had a higher survival rate in US subs than in the air over Europe.
My mom had 2 1st cousins…twins… that flew B-17s in WWII. Both returned home , graduated from college and started careers. They were both called back in during Korea and flew B-29s as refuelers.
I got to know them both and they were tremendous men.
God, what I would give to be able to visit with that generation of my family again !
