Title: Need Some Help look for picture of plane used in squadron
Post by: 68KO on January 12, 2005, 12:17:44 PM

Hello,
to the skin guys , 1st I would like to say what a great job you guys do and how you made the game so much better.

I am looking for my squad plane picture so I can attempt my first skin.
I know they are an Army Air corps and they where in the Pacific campain. They where the 347th fighter group and 68th fighter wing. I know they flew the P-39,p-40 and the P-38. I have been looking every where on the web for years and can not find didly squat. Can some on help in finding and close up pictures of a plane that has the markings for the 68th Lightning Lancer.

thanks for you help and time

Looks like there is a 347th FG History out there.  Rare and not cheap however.
