Post by: TonyJoey on July 21, 2008, 09:58:40 PM
Here is a link to a huge arsena of skins: http://images.google.com/imgres?imgurl=http://www.michael-reimer.com/CFS2/CFS2_Profiles/ETO_Allies_9_USAAF-Dateien/O7R_400x150.jpg&imgrefurl=http://www.michael-reimer.com/CFS2/CFS2_Profiles/ETO_Allies_9_USAAF.html&h=150&w=400&sz=34&hl=en&start=6&um=1&tbnid=0oIC7eNocyhBLM:&tbnh=47&tbnw=124&prev=/images%3Fq%3DBlooms%2Btomb%2Bp-47%26um%3D1%26hl%3Den%26sa%3DN

Now for the skin request.
(http://img517.imageshack.us/img517/3706/p47bloomstombpo1.png)This was a P-47D-25 flown by Maj. Jay C. Van Bloom of the 406 FG, 514 Sq. in Italy of 1944. I would love to see this skin in the game as i like to fly jugs, and would definetely fly with this skin.  :salute

As with any website or book that has profiles.  Be sure you have photo sources to back up the profiles.  remember that's some guys interpretation of a photo, maybe and many many times they are incorrect.

Ty lyric that is all i could find besides the website at the top that i posted...It's near the bottom and it is shown under the 406th FG, 514 FS. (note: if you scroll all the way to the bottom then go up slowly you'll find it pretty quicky.) :salute

Tony, the 406th FG was a 9th AF group operating out of England then on the continent after the invasion.  They were not an Italy based bunch for what it's worth.
