OK here ya go.
Bellied in after the engine quit due to fuel starvation on May 2, 1945.
The Little Friends website lists the pilot as Lt. John E Davenport
It was bellied in by Lt Henry Pletz.
It is definately a combat bird and the clues are easy to spot. It has tail warning radar installed. The photo on Little Friends shows it with 108 gallon DTs. It has a letter not a number as the War Weary's had.
It would be a great addition to the AH B/C Ponies.
Note the hand painted 363 on the rudder.
