The Liberty Foundation's Boeing B-17 "Memphis Belle" is in town at Martin State Airport, Middle River, Md., Monday, August 25, 2014. The visiting aircraft will be open to the public on Saturday and Sunday August 30-31, offering flights as well as ground tours. This B-17 was built toward the end of the war and never saw any combat but was painted in the colors and ose art of the original historic "Memphis Belle" B-17 that flew countless missions with the 91st bomb group of the 8th Airforce and was the first B-17 to complete 25 missions. It is one of only 13 still flying today. (Andrew Harnik/The Washington Times)
