Hi guys,
My next painting will feature P-38Js of the 459th FS “Twin Dragons”, an India-based squadron with those very distinctive large green “dragons” painted on each boom. I know you’ve seen them.
Anyway, refs are few and far between for these colorful Lightnings (why?), BUT I now know that there was a two-part article on the 459th Fighter Squadron in FLYPAST around April-May 2001, IIRC (I’m not near my refs now). Luckily, I found the issue containing Part 1 on eBay. I’m now looking for Part II – I believe it was the very next issue.
Is this issue available in back issue – somewhere? If not, can somebody copy or scan the Part II article for me?
Thanks for any help!
Wade
