The ENOLA GAY nose art I don't believe is authentic,

If you don't know that plane's history, Colonel Paul Tibbets
named her after his mother...
and he and his crew dropped the big one on Hiroshima, Japan.
They also flew weather recon for the 2nd bomber on Nagasaki...
Tibbets later retired as a General...
The Mig 17 , however, is authentic...
