"Looking up an assembly line at Ford's big Willow Run plant in Michigan, where B-24E (Liberator) bombers are being made in great numbers, February 1943. The Liberator is capable of operation at high altitudes and over great ranges on precision bombing missions. It has proved itself an excellent performer in the Pacific, Northern Africa, Europe and the Aleutians." - Howard Hollem for the Office of War Information

By November of 1943, the Willow Run plant had the B-24s coming off the assembly line at the rate of one per hour, more than 150 per week.
