Charmin' Lady lurched into the Caquaten Valley in Northern Luzon on 18th May 1945 after taking hits from Japanese groundfire. This is typical nose-art of the later model B-25D strafers which equipped the 17th Tactical Reconnaissance Squadron. Most of these were -25 models, Charmin' lady being B-25D-25-NA serial # 42-87444. Pilot 1/Lt Frederic E. Kluth and four others lost their lives in the crash.
