| Operation Bolero Recovery & Restoration Group, Inc.
is a non-profit organization dedicated to the recovery
and restoration of WWII aircraft, and to sharing the significant
history of the vintage military aircraft of WWII with
generations to come.
The current project is the recovery and restoration
of the remaining Lost Squadron, (5) P-38 fighters and
(2) B-17 bombers forced to land in Greenland in July
of 1942 during Operation
Bolero.
Once recovered, the planes of the Lost
Squadron would
be brought home and restored by OBRRG, in hopes that
they would fly the skies with the P-38 Glacier
Girl,
thus becoming the only squadron of WWII fighter aircraft
flying together in the world.
Due to the historical significance and value of these
aircraft, a group
in Germany is actively seeking to recover them. If this
is allowed to
happen, it is likely that these wonderful warbirds will
never return home
to the country that they served so valiantly for. Operation
Bolero
Recovery and Restoration Group would like to “Bring ‘Em
Home to America” where they rightfully belong.
