All American (aircraft) All American (aircraft) The All American (full name All American III) was a World War II Boeing B-17F Flying Fortress bomber aircraft that was able to return safely to its base after having its rear fuselage nearly cut off by an in-flight collision with a German fighter over enemy-held territory.

It inspired the 414th Bombardment Squadron's emblem, an image of a puppy praying atop an aircraft's tail
