I've seen this pic published with a caption suggesting that those are four, small, swastika kill markings. Any ID on this retread pilot?

Took this a couple weeks ago, thought it might fit in here.

This photo that I took of Bill Anders with his F-51, when he dropped by Olympia a few years ago, might be relevant as well.
