This page is dedicated to the men and women who fought in World War II and the men and women of the Confederate Air Force (CAF) for their devotion to keeping the history of World War II era aviation flying.

In it's prior mission in life after the war this B-26 served as a corporate airplane Tenneco Oil Company .  It was converted from a military configuration to civilian configuration meaning the loss of all the turrets and the bomb bay doors.

From 1979 to 1984 a full restoration was completed. 

The B-26 was named in the honor of  Col Aik Miller's wife, Carolyn Miller

The Plane was lost during a training flight on September 28, 1995

God Speed   

A special "Thank You" goes to all members of the B-26 Squadron, who, without their help, Carolyn would have never flown again.
