    P-51B without any unit code. By the time this photo was taken the B/C models had more or less been replaced by the D/K models, so most likely a "hack" somewhere.... Could be Folkingham, England 1944 or Achiet in France 1945 Stig

  • Stig Jarlevik said:
    Interestingly enough, Marshall gives two dates for this incident. Photo page: 3-31-1945 (31 March) Aircraft list: 45-03-26 (26 March) What is your source here Gary? Stig
  • Kerry Taylor said:
    it is Joe Baughers website which gives 27Mar45 as the date of the accident.

P-51B

    P-51B serial 43-7060 "Tommy's Dad" assigned to MAJ John C. 'Pappy' Herbst, commander of the 74th Ftr Sq, 23rd FG. Herbst's son was named Tommy - his only child. Herbst was later divorced, and married the actress Jeanne Eve Murphy on 3 July 1946. The next day Tommy was in the grandstands at Del Mar racetrack near San Diego when he witnessed his father's death during an aerobatic demonstration, a 2-ship flight of Lockheed P-80s from March Field, with MAJ Robin Olds as his wingman.
