HiRes Weathered P47D-22-RE "Razorback" Thunderbolt "78th.FG,82nd.FS." 
for P47C Slot was created to be used for Dirk "Emil" Schoorens' ETO 9th.USAAF.& 2nd.TAF Campaign

This Weathered P47D-22-RE "Razorback" (circa: Nov.1944) skin (MX-W) is based on an aircraft of 
the 78th.Fighter Squadron, 82nd.Fighter Group of the 8th.USAAF stationed at Bassingbourne, 
England engaged in the Allies Battle for Europe.

This P47D-22 aircraft "Miss Behave" was the mount of Lt.Robert Bosworth during his tour in the ETO.
1Lt.Bosworth was credited with 6 confirmed victories. 1 Air and 5 Ground kills.  

Detail reference material came from Kagero's Polish & English publication 
"Republic P-47 Thunderbolt" Vol.3 by Tomasz Szlagor & Krzysztof Janowicz.
The colours are as accurate as possible with the use of standard EAW Palette.
