Hi Pilot, although the Cathcart's have a lot of material they have found it challenging to send a single item (by mail or email) to me. It seems their archive of material is set to stay in their basement forever so in answer to your question yes I really have tried that route which is why I am endavouring to find where the official photos may be held that I hope the military still have in storage.

Do you have any idea what the contact details are of the USAAF Museum as I don't know where it is based?

Luc, I have just sent them an email and said I am looking for any images re. the 325th and am waiting for a reply. Searching their website though no results came back for Checkertail, Checkertails, 325th, Herschel Green,etc, etc except for a reference to the books I mentioned in my OP.

Can anyone else make a suggestion as to where official Fighter Group images/film may be kept?

Cheers, MP
