If only there was historical precedent for Doras vs. F4U-1As.  :D

I had the pleasure of knowing a former Corsair pilot. I was quite surprised to learn that some hogs were indeed deployed in the ETO. More specifically, they were involved in the invasion of So. France from the Mediterranean. According to him however the only German planes they saw were heading away from them as fast as possible.
