Thank you all for the feedback, including Lfuente with your supporting images and dhanners for the correction data about Greenville, Texas.
We continue with the FAEM: After completing the training in Texas, the 300 man contingent left for San Francisco to sail on the ship Fairisle to the Philippine Islands. Arriving at Clark Field, in Porac, Pampanga at the north of Manila on the 1st of May, 1945. Squad 201 was incorporated to the 5th. Air Force, within the 58th. Fighting Group. They started flying in loaned Republic P-47-D21 Razorbacks version.
The color scheme was as follows: the entire body in natural aluminum, antiglare panel along top of fuselage, with the empenage and the leading edge of the wings in white, which was the identification of all American aircraft in the Pacific. The rudders were painted in the pre-war red, white and blue stripes. Two horizontal stripes in the cowling; one black stripe and the other stripe with the color of the Squad. The colors for the cowling stripes were red for the 69 FS, black for 311 FS and blue for 310 FS. Black invasion bands 27 inches wide in the fuselage and wings. Squadron Leaders wore double bands.
The two models show machines lent to 201st. Squad. The majority of this airplanes had been writing off, but FAEM Mechanics put it on service again.
The plane with red stripe in the cowling started as a building test made out of 75 gr copy paper, but it went out very well. The other plane was build with 125 gr paper.
Best Regards, Tigertony 100.
