The North American B-25 Mitchell was a legendary American medium bomber of World War II, serving with distinction in every theatre of the war. Its impressive adaptability spawned numerous variants, including the heavily armed PBJ-1 patrol bomber, which was operated by the United States Marine Corps. These rugged aircraft flew dangerous anti-shipping and ground attack missions throughout the Pacific island-hopping campaigns.
