Tom Blackburn's F4U-1 BuAer

Hi there!
Looking for the VF-17 C/O F4U-1 ("Big Hog") BuAer (no mention of it in any Frank Olynyk's book).
If anyone can help, I'd appreciate.
TIA.

Chris

White 1 nicknamed "Big Hog" was F4U-1A Bu.No. 17649. This is from Mark Styling's "Corsair Aces of WW2" Osprey Aircraft of the Aces #8.
