Tony,
A Halifax at last, now that would be someting. Talking about Libs......
This morning at work, a collegue of mine showed me an issue of a magazine about Dutch veterans. It has an article about a Dutch pilot while based at Biak airfield in 1951. There is also a photograph showing the wrecks of a lot of Liberators, B-25's, a catalina, several DC-3's and a least one Boston. Looks like a massive scrapyard. According to the pilot they scrounged a lot of parts from the wrecks as well as the vehicle dump nearby. From the parts they made some sort of jeep.
