Hi Stig. This is John Anderson and Mogan after name added....
https://www.reddit.com/r/WWIIplanes/..._2nd_lt_james/


This is the same "Mildred" at EOW, note name is only on cowling so not it's regular name. Well-maintained Gloss Black finish reflects Johnson's status as Sqn. c/o. Obviously not "Runner"....

Magazine photo is John Anderson, Mogan, Bob Elmore & Leonard Mapes (4 claims). Sorry don't know where I got 42-5543 from, trying to strain brain.


ED. Photo 13. 44-8007, this is most likely post-war when she was assigned to Ninth AF / USAFE for photo/mapping/surveying over Europe; note crew's bags with names, not her regular crew in combat.

OK Nick
So if I understand you correctly the Black W 'Mildred' is so far unidentified.

Cheers

Re: eBay: Allied intrest
 

Afraid so. In the article there are 2 photos referring to Oris Johnson, one is "Mildred" and the other (with Johnson) he's on P-61A "No love! no nothing!" but they are not the same P-61 (different radomes). In the 422 History there's a photo of him with "No love" but no serial shown on any. Would you like the link?
