    John Rogers flew the "Jolly Roger" of the 39th FS in PTO with
 SHARK MOUTHS on the nacelles.

This info was found on the AH2 39th FS.  Thx for ur attention   :salute

You know, there is a shark-mouthed P-38 from the 39th FS in game already.    It's Tommy Lynch's bird:

Was John Rogers' P-38 appreciably different?

It had a skull and crossbones on it.  I'm thinking Happy1 didn't know we had Lynch's bird

My sincere apologies both of u are correct, oboe thx for the skin &
Guppy thx 4 the explanation, the Skull & Crossbones was on John Rogers P38.  Secondly I was looking for the skins for the P38J & L models, should've checked P38G likewise .... my mistake!

39th did not fly Js or Ls.  They had to give up their 38s to the 475th FG and convert to Jugs, then later they got 51s so the only accurate 38 is the G model we have for the 39th
