Caption to the picture from Historynet, Major Bong, now a V Fighter Command staff officer with a “roving commission,” confers with Major Thomas J. McGuire of the 475th Fighter Group, who became a determined rival for Bong’s status as America's top ace.
My father wanted to fly a P38 but got put into a B25. He was always disappointed about that.
I was at McGuire AFB when it put up a P-38 as a tribute to Maj McGuire. His widow (and current husband) attended the ceremony. I thought is was a little depressing since the P-38 had flown into the field. Took about a year to get it ready.
One report is that McGuire broke one of his rules and went into a dogfight without jettisoning his wing tanks. And I read that, after the war, Bong became a test pilot and was killed in a crash.
