Good BBC article on WWII nose art- Don Allen artist

Don Allen now lives in Ohio where he has replicas of all the images he painted during the war. He produced more than 100 piece of art in total

Now that is a collection I would like to see.

One my favourite books of all time is about the 4th FG at Debden – Tumult in the Clouds by James Goodson. Gives the details of Kid Hoffer and Vic France plus others.

Lent it to someone, need to replace it!

I can also recommend “Spitfires, Thunderbolts and Warm Beer”, LeRoy Gover’s story – joined the RAF as a volunteer, then transferred to the USAAF and flew Spitfires and Thunderbolts from Debden. A good pairing!
