Martin B-26 Marauder Bomber 2 Atlantis Recycled Cuffed Beanie

The Martin B-26 Marauder stands as a testament to American engineering and airpower during World War II. Entering service in 1941, this twin-engine medium bomber quickly proved its mettle across the European and Pacific theaters. With a crew of seven, the Marauder combined speed, firepower, and durability in a way few aircraft of its time could. Capable of reaching speeds up to 287 mph and armed with 11 machine guns plus up to 4,000 pounds of bombs, the B-26 struck fear into the hearts of Axis forces. Despite early challenges with its handling, the Marauder's impressive combat record, including the lowest loss rate of any USAAF bomber, earned it the nickname 'The Chief.' Its legacy is marked by over 110,000 sorties, showcasing the strategic importance and bravery of its crews in turning the tide of war.
