When/where did teh 358th FG became the "Orangetails"?
Hi all,
any idea when/in which one circumstaces, the 358th FG became the famous "Orangetails" group? I believe it was in Toul, but some picts let me imagine it allredy was orange-tail-painted in Normandie or central France. Do someone have an evocation of the orange-painting history? Thanks for help! Mathias |

The first mention I have in the Orange tails book is about October/November 1944 when they were painted.
