Activation of the Twentieth Air Force in 1944 occurred with one purpose: Operating the last U.S. bomber produced during World War II, the B-29 Superfortress. All B-29s that served overseas during the war were assigned to 20 AF, from the China-Burma-India theater to the Mariana Islands. What a treat for members of today’s HQ 20 AF to tour an aircraft responsible for the NAF’s early existence! Air Force Global Strike Command Commemorative Air Force
