In A&P class tonight we watched the WW2 P-47 documentary that James Stewart introduced. It showed the "Hun Hunter XIV." I've always liked this airplane but never knew anything about it. What squadron was it, who flew it and is the pilot still alive?
Also, I'd really like to meet George Sutcliffe. Heard he sells insurance in Connecticut. Any way I can get up there to go meet him? If he's still in the insurance business, find out where he works and go in there asking for an insurance quote?

65th FS / 57th FG
