Re: P47 crashed at Bois des dimes /France
Rick. The rear insignia position ( ie. behind the intercooler doors) was factory-applied and in Eighth and Ninth usually re-marked further forward to fit in the aircraft letter in front of the tailplane; Twelfth AF didn't bother as they did not have to accomodate
these codes.
This looks to me like a camouflaged razorback ( the insignia is quite low down) which would rule out 7109 an unpainted D-27-RE.
The other 2 were a D-20-RE and D-16-RE both would be OD/NG.
Just a thought.
