During World War II, the Boeing B-17 became synonymous with the heavily armed strategic bomber, although with 12,677 aircraft it was by no means the most-built aircraft of this type. She received her name Flying Fortress from an American journalist after the first flight and it stuck with her.

She was given the name Memphis Belle by her crew, after the girlfriend of the pilot, Lt. Robert K Morgan. Her fame stemmed from the fact that she was officially the first US Army Air Force bomber in Europe to survive 25 sorties and become the star of a Hollywood propaganda film.
