It was supposed to be a high-altitude bomber. But one angry mechanic turned it into a low-flying shotgun.

In 1943, the Allies were desperate to stop the Japanese supply lines in the Pacific. High-altitude bombing was failing. The solution? "Pappy" Gunn took a B-25 Mitchell, painted over the glass nose, and stuffed it with .50 caliber machine guns. Combined with the deadly tactic of "Skip Bombing," this new weapon didn't just defeat the enemy—it annihilated them.
