B-25s In Flight And Close Up

In this intriguing photo, two B-25Cs of the 491st Bomb Squadron fly near the coastline in the CBI. Despite significant damage to the photo itself, still the content is very eye catching, so much that one wonders who the men in the turret and cockpit were.

Tony,

The tail number of the far plane seems to be 129600 (or just maybe 129800). I cannot pull up even a trace of tail number on the closer plane.

Pat,

Can you enhance the image (brighten?) enough to see if the officer is wearing two stars on his collar?  If so, I believe this is Casey Vincent.  A slightly brighter image might allow me to compare this with other photos of Vincent?
