Gabor. These serials are often a problem (ask Stig). The accident report for Sept. 22 44 for Mattison says it was 44-13555 but this was 4FG / Eighth AF "Thunderbird". Dec. 6 44 does say Young in 42-103555 but I'm not sure this was "Bernice Baby" flown by J.D. Holsclaw (?). Young was lost in 42-103454 Jan. 21 45 over Austria.
McGee flew another "Kitten" in Korea later; do you want to see a colour photo?


Regards
Nick
