Re: Don Sheppard's Oscar kills on 4 Jan 1945

Thank you very much, Nicholas!
Assuming for the moment that Hirate was one of Sheppard's victims (we'd need to find pilot encounter reports or guncam footage to be sure, I guess), do you think it would be at all possible to reconstruct what Hirate's aircraft looked like? Unike American, British and German aircraft, the Japanese aircraft markings seem to have been a bit more "free" and unstructured. But that could be just my impression only, due to my relative unfamiliarity with the JAAF.
