Cartoon of "Chief Wahoo"...
As promised to the kind Mr. McFarlane, here it is the cartoon depicting the B-17 "Chief Wahoo" which has been the protagonist of this thread.
According to the words of Mr. Larry N. Colvard, grandson of the pilot of the B-17, Col. Talment, "...After they had named the plane, a correspondent published this cartoon in US papers, My grandmother cut this out during the war, it depicts the noseart, they had ferried the writer for some reason..." This is what makes history alive, IMHO...! A second image is due to show the original look in wartime of the Spitfire which Mr. McFarlane is actually rebuilding... ![]() Hope to have been of help to the community... ![]()
