In WWII there are many things that played large roles in deciding the outcome of the war and the start to it as well. But one thing that was very important throughout the war were the fighter planes and bombardier planes used on each side. This also connects with my novel because all of the characters are apart of the 27th air division or are somehow related or involved with it.
The artifact I’m choosing is the TBD Devastator, the plane that was most dominant in bombing in the U.S and used by the main character of Catch-22. This artifact is important because it was one of the most dominant bombardier planes in the war and had the ability to snake away from danger while carrying large loads heavy bombs to the target location. This will likely be the eventual demise of my main character however.
This artifact is not upsetting or nor does it make me proud as an American, but it does provide many cool stories, knowing that many of the greatest pilots in the history of humanity have flown in this certain type of plane is very interesting and creates quite a story in the head if you have an imagination or do drugs. (just kidding)
The Bomber plane played such a huge impact in the war and my novel in fact, that I did some of my own research on it only to find that in every war since WWII bomber planes are designed to emulate the type of bomb dropping that the TBD did, and it killed more innocent German civilians than targeted soldiers even though it had, quite literally, deadly accuracy.
