Un "Liberator" en Acción [A "Liberator" in Action]
A colour photograph inside a bomber shows two US gunners at their machine guns, with belts of ammunition and fuel tanks around them. The caption says they fire at enemy aircraft on a bombing mission, and the aircraft's name 'Liberator' does the persuading, presenting a bombing raid under a liberation label.
