c1950s The Kee Bird Commemorative Poem B-29 Superfortress Arctic Rescue USAF

Description: This is a nice, original commemorative poem dedicate to "The Kee Bird." The Kee Bird was a United States Army Air Forces Boeing B-29 Superfortress, serial 45-21768, of the 46th Reconnaissance Squadron, that became marooned after making an emergency landing in northwest Greenland during a secret Cold War spying mission on 21 February 1947. While the entire crew was safely evacuated after spending three days in the isolated Arctic tundra, the aircraft itself was left at the landing site. It lay there undisturbed until 1994, when a privately funded mission was launched to repair and return it. During the attempted recovery, a fire broke out, resulting in the destruction and loss of the airframe on the ground. Measures 6.25" x 4.75" and contains 2 pages. There is some mild surface discoloration and some wear at edges. Please study photos and Email with any question. A great addition to any collection!
