New P-51 painting ...
Hey guys,
Here's my latest, a commissioned "portrait" I finished up this a.m. Miss Dallas Oil on panel 11 x 14  Capt. Victor J. "Vic" France of Dallas, TX. 334 FS, 4 FG. April 1944. 71 (Eagle) Squadron vet. KIA in this P-51B (43-6832; QP-K) on 18 April 1944. Vic was "almost an ace" with 4.333 air and 4.333 ground - confirmed. Best friend was Don Blakeslee, who watched him go in chasing a 109 at low level. His crew chief Don Allen told me in 2001 that he got a call from a lady in England not too many years ago - from the daughter Vic probably never knew about - wanting to know a bit about her dad from the man who saw him off every day. Wade
