Does anyone have a source for photos of Col. Doolittle’s P-38 he flew during the D-Day Operation? P-38f/g?
Thanks,
Lou

P-38J-10-LO Lightning (serial number 42-67402). Photo taken while assigned to the 8th Air Force as a personal aircraft for Gen Jimmy Doolittle :

Thanks for the reply, the pictures and the link. I prefer the invasion stripe version., although I’ll have to do more research to try and confirm that was a legitimate paint scheme during Op Overlord.
