P-38L "Ho-Hum The Second"
« on: February 19, 2020, 12:25:35 AM »
Vraciu asked me to post this current project for him.
This is an adopted skin that Fencer originally did.


"Ho-Hum the Second" was flown by Lt. Lloyd Wenzel of the 474th fighter group / 428th fighter squadron & were part of the Ninth Air Force. They mostly performed ground attack throughout Europe.

When looking for photos for this plane I was surprised that it had partial D-day stripes on the tail booms. Was not aware that the P-38L model was available for D-day in time.  :headscratch:
Some clearly were. :rock
