Goodmorning from Hollland,

I would like to thank all the people who replied on my question!!
Thank you Thank you!
I recieved a picture of Dutch citizens sitting on the crash landed P47D, that belonged to 1Lt. Wiggins, called "Angeleyes".
Not "Angel Eyes", correct me of i am wrong!
I cant find any paint on the engine cowl of this P-47D QI-M.
I guess the nickname was painted somewhere else in the kite.
The cowling is painted 1/2 Olive Drab and 1/2 alumimium.
I ll put it up on display and maybe i can share a picture.
Now....its going to be importnant to write the correct information with the Cowling.
100% correct is: The P-47D made a crash landing after being hit by ground fire on September 18th 1944 during ground strafing during Operation Market Garden.
The location: Klein Amerika, Groesbeek.
Now i have the story about MacDowell fighting shoulder to shoulder with the Army.
I also heard a story he bumped in to General Hackett.
How can i find the personal report of Reginald MacDowell?
I ll read your posts again and hopefully we can put the correct story on paper for the next generations.
I would love to have a picture of this Hero.

again, thanks for your help!!!

Regards,

Eduard
