I have a friend who flew Marauders during the war. He liked it very much. Low on armor but high on manuverability. He was part of that disasterous Ploesti Oil Fields raid. He also said that there were very few B-26 in the raid. His was out of Italy. He said it was the low level flight ability of the B-26 that got him and his crew back.

He also said they were a hard train but once learned a great ship in the air.
