Re: Shot Down P-40F-57FG?
RANGER's log shows a second ferrying to N. Africa ( Feb. 1943).....
Jan. 6 loaded P-40Fs at Norfolk Navy Yard
Jan. 8 sailed.
Jan. 19 P-40s landed Casablanca
Returned USA arrived Jan. 30.
Feb.13 sailed Norfolk for Morocco with P-40s ( I think these were the P-40L replacements for 33FG). There is a photo of them on board, in both camo schemes and plain insignia.
Feb. 25 landed planes Casablanca.
March 10 returned to USA .
.........Could be F-10 41-14502 or L-5 42-10502 ?
