Yodel Bloomer was an A-20H assigned to the 389th Bombardment Squadron late in the war at Floridablanca, the Philippines. H models began to replace the Fifth Air Forces A-20G models from around March 1945 onwards. The major difference was a more powerful version of the Wright R-2600 radial engine which powered this resilient attack bomber.

Yodel Bloomer's assigned pilot was 1/Lt H. H. Yates, the crew chief was T/Sgt J. L. Kellett, and assistant crew-chief H. T. Ball. The serial number of this aircraft is unknown
