The “Silver Dollar” nose art painted on a B-17 Flying Fortress assigned to the 100th Bomb Group at Thorpe Abbotts, Norfolk, England, during World War II, was the only double-sided nose art in 1943. Eighty years later, the “Silver Dollar” nose art has been updated and redesigned – again as a double-sided “coin” – and has just been unveiled on one of the 100th Air Refueling Wing’s KC-135 Stratotankers at Royal Air Force Mildenhall, England, Oct. 10, 2023.
