Through the months of active service the 457th Bomb Group had many officers and enlisted men in training and on base in England. An estimated 3700 officers and enlisted men were proud members of the Fireball Outfit.

In this photo collection you will find 859 photos of 457th Bomb Group members. It means that we are still missing 2839 photos! We had only 54 photos and managed to find 805 more in the last few years.

We hope that more and more people will start sending in photos of 457th Bomb Group members so we can see who they were for many many more years to come!
