To the segment of our audience who noticed flaws in certain historical and technical aspects of our film: we strove to be as accurate as we were able to afford. This movie was a labor of love, born out of respect for the men of the Army Air Corps who both flew and supported the operations of B-17s during WWII. Unfortunately, much of the equipment that might of increased the accuracy of our sets no longer exists, and those people who still own and operate B-17s were not forthcoming with assistance in providing us with access to planes. We were forced to do what many generations of film makers and G.I.s had to do before us: Make do. So, to those who were unable to enjoy the film due to glaring inaccuracies, we offer our deepest condolences. No doubt, you will find a community of like-minded, disappointed individuals on the Internet to validate your outrage at such historical inaccuracies, such as the lack of small wall tents, or the wrong gauge rivets in the cockpit windows. We hope, that in time, you will forgive us.
