Port (Left) Side - #99 Then #05 & Became a "Hack"
Anyone Know Her Original Name?

Contributor - Ed Clendenin
According to several 376th BG vets, MINNESOTA MARGE served as a hack plane for the group in late 44 - early 45. Since the 376th did not assign group numbers lower than 20, the "05" probably means it came from another group. There is a note in one of the vets diary, dated 19 Jan 45 that they took a truck to Manduria to ferry "05" back to base.
