The first photo is of a P-51 outside the gift ship at Battleship Memorial Park in Mobile, AL.
Today, after surviving Katrina, it is in the hangar at BMP, marked as a Tuskegee Airmen
P-51.

It was painted in Tuskegee colors as "Derailer" some time prior to Katrina. Here it is about a year after Katrina, still at Battleship Memorial Park awaiting repairs.

Only the original image could be restored. The other portions of this thread (sans pics) have been archived but removed from the restored thread.

The question was asked and answered before I even saw this thread. Funny, I took one look at the first image and said, "Man, that looks like at the USS Alabama!"
I was last there around 2014 and took a lot of photos but I had no idea the red-tail Mustang they have now is the same one they had back then.
