Bud Anderson's "OLD CROW"
 
I am working on a painting of Bud Anderson's P-51B 43-24823 OLD CROW. I am painting his aircraft leading a Group of 4 aircraft around July- August 1944 . Does anyone know what Squadron code would have been on his wingman's aircraft. And possible Squadron codes for the other Two aircraft. It would be great to be able to mix the different canopy frames on the aircraft. So any info on that would also be great. thanks in advance, Robert
