The centerpiece of WWII Veteran and Jolly Roger Bomber Group Navigator Norman Korn's collection, this set of 3 original mission-used maps shows the path taken by the bomber on it's final mission home after the completion of World War II.
Starting on Map #1, the bomber left Guam for The Marshall Islands, on Map #2, they travel from The Marshall Islands to Hawaii, then on Map #3, they make their final flight to San Francisco to return home to a grateful nation after a hard fought Pacific War.
Showcasing one of the most important aspects of war, coming home, these 3 maps truly are a centerpiece for any WWII collection.
During their flights, Officer Korn recorded fascinating observations such as seeing a destroyer in the water below and giving it the code name "Bird Dog"
The collection of Navigator Norman Korn has already had pieces acquired by The Smithsonian and The National WWII Museum. These charts exhibit the wear expected their age, but they are in exquisite overall condition and is ready for framing.
A document of provenance written by William of Picker Road detailing the known history of this piece will be included with it.
