I'm finding this topic both interesting, and confusing. I suppose it might be interesting me because it's confusing me!
Stony's uncle served with the Eagle Squadron, and it seems, stayed on with them after they became the 4th Fighter Group. Looks that way from the combat report.
Yet that Spitfire that's being modeled is an airplane of the 52nd Fighter Groups' 2nd Fighter Sqaudron. They flew in North Africa and later, in Italy.
His uncle could not have ben in both places at the same time. Could these be two different guys with the same name?!
Highly unlikely, I know.
Stoney, can you no longer ask your uncle? Has he passed on? We're losing these guys so quickly, I know.
