The 918th Bomb Group (H) conducts historical simulated bombing missions with the B-17 Computer Emulator by Preston McMurray and board game B-17: Queen of the Skies by Avalon-Hill. The missions are based on the actual aerial combat action of the 306th Bomb Group (H) based at Thurleigh, England during World War Two. It is a bomb group based upon the novel and movie "Twelve O'clock High" written by Beirne Lay Jr. and Sy Bartlett. The movie was produced by 20th Century Fox.

We hope that being a member of the 918th Bomb Group (H) will enhance your WWII USAAF history experience.
