Re: Ex-French P-40Fs
The other one was "white 9" also on the photograph !
As for the serial numbers, many P-40Fs came from 33rd FG - hence the names on the nose which are more American than French (Cricket, Lola...). GC 2/5 was reequiped late November 1942 drawing from local resources off Lend-Lease. Further allocations were made under Lend-Lease. |
