Lt. Hiawatha Mohawk, 325. FG
Hi everyone,
I have 325. FG books from Aero Publishers and Squadron Signal and I would like to find out more about Lt. Hiawatha Mohawk, 319. SQ.
His P-51 was 43-24818 "79" "Blond Squaw".
Are there more photos of his Mustang? Does exist his personal photograph? (except of one in Squadron book)
I am beginner in US personnel files. If I know his personal Air Force ID, can I somehow obtain some data about him?
Is he still alive?
Looks like he shot down a JGr. 200 fighter on June 15, 1944 over southern France. One Checkertail Clan P-51 was shot down by this unit in return. It was one of first 325. FG´s P-51 missions, but definitely a bloodiest one while flying this type. The 325. FG lost 7 a/c due to all kind of reasons. Highest loss rate per mission in case of this unit on P-51s.
thanks for your feedback
cheers
