    Lest we forget. Thank you, Memphis Belle, and the crew you carried and lovingly cared for. I Honor your service, and thank you for your service.

    As a kid, this was the start to a great weekend! I would served myself a big bowl of fruit loops, plop my ass infront of the t.v. and watch the Powerblock! Thanks for uploading these episodes again!

    The Air Force took the Memphis Belle back from the MBMA in 2005 and began restoration; she was finished and displayed on the 75th anniversary of her 25th mission, May 17, 2018. She is at the WWII Gallery of the National Museum of the United States Air Force, at Wright Patterson Air Force Base, in Ohio. I followed her restoration online the entire 13 years.

      We took a trip last month down to Dayton to see the Memphis Belle. The restoration and the display of the Belle is amazing!! If you can make the trip I recommend it.

    What many may not realize, is those MA 2 .50 cal machine guns are STILL in the inventory. They're THAT good of a
    design. Many improvements since then of course, but it's STILL the same weapon. These days you'll find one on every US M2 A2 main battle tank. And the troops STILL call them Ma deuces !

    It's wonderful that a restoration was under way. Thanks for the video and the history of the plane.

    Memphis Belle... see en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Memphis_Belle ...The plane is now on display at the "National Museum of the United States Air Force at Wright-Patterson AFB" in Dayton, Ohio... (as of May 2018). This must have been originally filmed somewhere between 2005 and 2018...

    Why not just called it the Memphis Belle instead of Sgt. Rock?

    I HATE where this is going. That classic WWII vet truck should be restored, NOT butchered as it is apparently going to be!

      People are just now starting to realize that. We here in America are being destroyed by the same “people” that destroyed Germany after WWI. We are becoming Germany before 1933.
