B-17 “Mizpah” Mizpah B-17G Fortress “Mizpah” took a direct AAA hit in the nose on a mission to Budapest, 14 Jul 1944. Two crewmembers were killed instantly, but the pilot held her level long enough for the crew to get out and they were taken prisoner of war. The aircraft crashed near Dunavecse, Hungary HOW?
