Un "Liberator" dans l'Action [A "Liberator" in action]
A colour photograph shows two US gunners at their machine guns inside a B-24 Liberator bomber, with a French caption that they are firing on enemy fighters during a bombing mission. The tell for card-stacking is the selection of one favourable view of the air war, an American crew in action, with no losses or civilian cost shown.
