Americas fighting planes as wells her fighting men are going home. Thunderbolts
Americas fighting planes as wells her fighting men are going home. Thunderbolts, . Mustangs, Lightnings and Black Widows which gave such magnificent support to the Flying Fortress and
and Liberator bombers against Germany, are now to do the same against Japan and because their range is limited, they must go by sea.
They travel on the exposed desks of converted carriers and preparation for the journey to the United States from England includes the removal of wing tips and tail units, the removal of guns and the covering of the remainder with canvas tape and waterproof paper with an overall layer of seawater-proof grease.
The picture shows: Hundreds of first line fighters from the 8th and 9th US Air Force parked on the tarmac at Lockheeds huge airport at Speke, Liverpool.
