Thanks for posting.:D
Very interesting; I didn't think that 8th AF was doing much with camo, esp. by the time the D-Day stripes were being used.Quote:

Ok, may be wrong on the FG. I can't find a reference for WR. 56 FG used, 61st FS HV, 62nd FS LM and 63rd FS UN.Quote:

354th FS of the 355th FG (65th FW) used WR according to my references, although no reference to camouflaged Jugs.
Operation Overloard, AIRFILE (P33)shows a P-47 (bubble top) with camo like that. It was the CO's plane LM-S but didn't have that invasion stripes. There is a color plate of a P-51 (WR-P). I painted a P-47 with that camo but no stripes.
Really nice picture!!!!
