Poor quality shot but very interesting. USAAC serial but RAF roundels. Almost certainly North Africa. Possibly a post flight test shot with an air camera. Year a guess. I believe that 14 and 39 Squadrons operated some Marauders with USAAC serials in the North West African campaigns. Became FB426 July 1943 belly landed near Fayid Dec 1943 and became 4385M. Served with 70 OTU and 161 MU.
