Best bet is to just ask Nick, and chances are one of us will have info on it.

Here's the bird in question.  I have another color shot of it somewhere, but I can't remember which book it's in.  I'll track i down eventually :)

Hmmm.  It would take me quite some time to list all the books on my shelves built up over the last 30+ years :)

This image came from Roger Freeman's  "The Mighty Eighth in Color"

Original pilot for Snoots Sniper, was Lt. Francis Horne.  Crew Chief Sgt. Arthur Snyder.  Horne was credited with 5.5 kills
