searching a P-51 from 162nd TRS named "Madeline"
 

Hey all,

do someone ever see a picture showing a (photo) Mustang of the 162nd TRS with name "Madeline" on cowling?

It should have been the 44-14036, (crashed with Lt Skenyon as pilot, on november 25th 1944) but that is not sure.

Thanks for any possible help, Mathias

Thanks Alex;

I had the MACR, have searched...and found a lot about that crash and Leo for years, but have found no pict about his plane, neither from 44-14036, neither from his own "Madeline"...

Thanks for having answered! best feelings from France
