My Uncle, Frank Wilton, worked on P40s and P47s during the war in the European theater. Is there a website for
33rd Fighter Gp, 60th Fighter Sq? I would appreciate any help. I have some pictures of the American Air Museum in Duxford. I was there in May 1996, prior to their finish and have a good picture of the P47 there. I would be glad to scan the photo and email it to you if you'd like.
Thank you for all you are doing and all you have done.
God Bless!

I have a picture that my grandfather brought back from the war of a p-47. He was Oren Clifton Brown, a radio operator on a b-24 in Europe. It is a really nice picture and the name Princess Pat is painted on the side with a cartoon character princess. Email me if anyone knows anything about this plane or would like a copy. I would like to know any information I could on this picture.
Thanks,
Philip

I am trying to find out which squadron in the 368th group was known as the 'Jabo Angels'. My uncle, William Shepard, was a pilot in this squadron during 1945.

I grew up in Bridgeton, New Jersey. There was an Army Air Base at Millville about nine miles from Bridgeton. I was a teenager at the time. Are there any of you Jug pilots who flew from Millville during the war?

Hi, my name is Brian Anthony and I am a senior at West Point currently researching my history thesis on the effectiveness of tactical air support during WWII in the ETO. I am looking for any opinions, stories, records, or even other people that would be willing to share these things with me. Since P-47's played such an important role this seemed the best place to start. I can be reached at x12374@exmail.usma.army.mil or 845-515-2882. Thank you!

Thanks for the site. I'm only 30 years old, but I've always loved the history of WW2. I especially like the War Birds P-47's & P-51's, since the age of 5. I have been to Oshgosh, WI many times with my father; I never left the war bird section. I have fond memories of the old birds, two in particular, the P-47 Big Chief & the P-47 Little Demon. I loved them both. I would give anything to fly in one of the P-47's. It would be a dream come true for me. I've read many books about Robert(Bob)Johnson and the U.S. 56th Fighter Group. It would have been a very different experience for me to have been there when you were living through it. Thank you
