Re: Allied aircraft photos
These are all 6th BG (N. Field Tinian, built by the 6th / 107th Naval Construction Battalions) they had red tail tips & cowling bands. Group marking Circle "R". The pirate insignia referenced previous service in the Caribbean.
1. "Patty Sue" 42-24825 /R-14 survived. 2 and 3 "White Mistress" 42-24776 /R-57 survived. 4. "Anne Garry III" 42-63514 /R-37 damaged over Tokyo, shot down by P-61 near IWO after crew bailed. Serial as per 6BG inventory. 5. "Snugglebunny" 44-69667 /R-32 survived ( 34 missions plus 78 Korea). 6."Shy Ann" probably 44-69864 /R-09 survived.
