Recapping the P-47's Record in the Pacific!,
By
This review is from: Thunderbolt, The Republic P-47 in the Pacific Theater - Aircraft Specials series (6079) (Paperback)
Lightning strikes twice as Ernie McDowell and Squadron/Signal follow up their 1998 summary of the Jug in combat over Europe and the Med with this 1999 text/photo guide to the P-47 in the Pacific Theater. P-47 fans should enjoy this new volume as it's as interesting and appealing a package as the earlier volume.
P-47s were flown by fighter groups in the 5th, 7th, 10th, 14th and 20th Air Forces as well as the RAF, Mexican Air Force, etc. Twentieth AF fighter groups included the 413th, 414th and 507th FGs, each group's combat exploits - and markings - being summarized in a 1/2- to full-page history. Naturally there's photos galore, over 140 black & white and 10 color snaps. Eight color pages of profiles courtesy of Don Greer are also featured. Like the earlier P-47 book, this 'Jug in the Pacific' volume is great value for the dollar. It features good summaries of each FG's history supplemented by tons of photos and great artwork. P-47 fans, take note!
