Fortress (2012)

This is a movie about B-17's stationed in Africa during IIWW https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1558575/. Whilst lacking stellar rating (deservedly), the movie must be commended for spectacular CGI sequences in the begining and the end, and some decent scenes (like the stolen whiskey affair in the middle of the movie). Also, it shows B-17's bombing Rome. I had no idea Rome was bombed. But Wikipedia says: " The first bombardment occurred on July 19, 1943 and was carried out by 500 American bombers which dropped 1,168 tons of bombs.". So I'd like to recommend this movie, with some reservations.
