This is an HR skin for Chompy's excellent model of the P47d.

It is for a member of Hub Zemke's "Wolfpack" 56th FG, 61st FS, based at Boxted, 1945. 

P47M  No. 44-21116  HV*J  "Lorene"  (I know it's an "M", ya just gotta work with what you've got)

The pilot was Lt. Russel S. Kyler of Huntington PA.

On the fuselage are markings for 10 kills he scored in this plane :
2 FW190's 
1 Me109
and 7 kills from ground attack missions.

His Crew chief, one of the many unsung hero's of the air war, was S/sgt Van C McGehee (McGhee?)



HUGE thanks go to John "Chompy" Masters for his tireless efforts and constant tweaking of this model, right up untill the last minute, when he sent me the fillet for the tail section to make this a later mark of 'Jug'. 
Also, check out the great job he's done, getting the tapered effect on the cowl front, for a long time the bane of a good P47 model. Thanks Chompy.

As per usual, Complaints and compliments will reach me at Sim HQ message board.

Enjoy
