Pilot & gunner of A-20G "Milly" of the 3rd BG. There's another name painted forward of the group emblem, but it's difficult to make out... the second word looks like a variant of "Katrina."

A-20G-20-DO "Powerful Katrinka" 42-86713 13th BS

A big Homer Simpson "Whoo-HOOOOOO!!!" for furnishing the proper name, assigned squadron AND the serial number - thanks very much!

My Dad was in the 3rd Attack Group (aka 3rd BG) as a navigator and bombardier with the 90th Squadron. 52 missions. The 3rd consisted of the 8th, 13th, 89th, and 90th Squadrons. All but the 8th flew A-20s until near the end of WW II. The 3rd was known as the Grim Reapers with the logo known as Oscar. Oscar was also the logo for the 13th as displayed on Powerful Katrinka. My Dad's leather A-2 jacket had Oscar on the left breast, and the 90th's logo "Pair-O-Dice" on the right breast. The dice showed two natural 7's and snake eyes.

Assigned pilot's name appears to be LT W.H. Canter.
