This one might be nice to try. OD/Gray J.
Serial number is 42-68029
Name: "Little Edris" named for pilot's wife
Pilot: Lt. Berkley E. Hollister
Codes L2-V
Lost on July 5, 1944 with another pilot, Lt. Clayton F. Proctor. Might be a nice way to honor a lost pilot in the game.
Images from the 479th FG Group History including the cover painting.
It appears from the painting and photos that they oversprayed the white spinner and ID bands on the engines as well as the NMF nose. Color is not the same as the OD, so probaby an RAF dark green or something similar.
Hopefully this doesn't disappear too far as you are headed out of town, but I figured I'd post it anyway
