Edward "ED" Bradfield of Rockville, IN. Looking for any surviving crew members, or those who can share information about this plane and crew. Mr Bradfield shared a story with me... as I built-up a 1/48 scale model of his "Raz'N Hell" B-29A during the Korean War. He related the tale that his aircraft was likely the only B-29 to shoot-out one of it's own engines during the Korean War. He said during maint. they forgot to replace the barrel-stops on one of the top-turrets. During the course of the mission, they were under orders to expend all ammunition before returning to base. One of the crew--not a gunner--wanted to shoot the guns, and he swiveled the turret and promptly shot-out their #2 engine when the guns depressed farther than they should have been able--due to the missing stops. I modeled "Raz 'N Hell" with it's #2 engine shot-up and prop feathered, wheels down and preparing to land after this mission. Ed Bradfield died a few years ago and I inherited his model. I would GLADLY pass it along to any surviving crew-member if interested. (It's BIG!) Tim Keywords: B-29A-35-BN Tail #44-61535 "Raz'N Hell" 28th Bomb Squadron 19th Bomb Group Based Kadena AB, Okinawa
