Re: All-black captured Mustang?
Sky -
Summer of 1944 , My Dad spotted a " Black " Mustang flying East over Germany. He was ordered by Sq. Leader Tommy Hayes to investigate. Weather was Dark , Rainy , Cloudy. The Mustang evaded and ducked into clouds . He was then told to shoot him down. Dad got a few shots but lost him in Clouds and had to return as fuel was Low. My Neighbor , Kelly Gross , 354th FG Ace , also encountered a " Black " Mustang and chased him for awhile , It was a Dark , Rainy Day. A 100th BG Crew also reported a " Black " Mustang approached them on a Mission but did not attack. I showed them Pictures of German P - 51 T9 - CK , Painted Dark Green, and they agreed it could be it as They both encountered it in Dark Skies. Dad - John C. Howell 357th FG , 364th Sq. P - 51 " SHOO SHOO BABY ". Mike Howell |
