Re: USAAF Squadron Codes
AH!
now we are making progress.
if you had mentioned earlier that you were researching the 362 FG then it would have been a lot easier.
the book that I mentioned earlier is laid out by group and that makes it very easy to find if you know the Group number first.
it lists the code for the 377 FS as E4
page 73 shows P-47's from Nov 44
379 FS with a yellow cowling 'lip'
378 FS with a blue cowling 'lip'
377 FS with a red cowling 'lip'
and from Feb 45 it shows a red tip to the fin/rudder and a black band below that. (appears to be a standard ETO band as applied to NMF planes)
