Re: Gabreski P-47, #42-75510
Thank you for this info Alex. We had assumed HauptmannEmil Bully Lang but this document opens other possibilities. 1230 hours was the last time Buttner’s mates saw him. Also the crashes of Sheppard and King were about that time – all in East Rambouillet.
This document mentions film. Do you know if the film is of public record and of quality to identify the pilot claims?
Portions of this P-47 were sent to the American Fighter Aces Association at Boeing Field, Seattle where a nice painting of this aircraft is visible in the lobby.
Cheers,
PJ
