1992 Classic is where it all started. Their chances for survival were slim. But, despite tremendous adversity, the crew of the Memphis Belle returned from their 25th mission to become heroes of the Allied air offensive in World War II.
What did the courageous flyboys of the Memphis Belle really experience as they plowed through relentless anti-aircraft fire over Nazi-occupied Europe? Find out for yourself as you lead a 10-men crew to victory... or defeat... against squadrons of Nazi warplanes in the legendary B-17 Flying Fortress!
Select 10 crew members by studying their past missions, promotions, and medals but be ready to take control of each and every position onboard.
