These are a couple of Photos of a Lt. Kenny Frost (who served in the Italian Theater of Operations with the 96th Fighter Squadron, of the 82nd Fighter Group) who flew P-38's and made it through the war. He was my Mom's boyfriend but was tragically killed after he returned at the end of the war on a Rocket Firing Training Run at Fort Irwin California on September 17, 1945.
Lt. Frost had a Caricatured of my Mom painted on the nose of his Fighter dressed in a Cowgirl outfit sporting two 6 shooters.
My younger Brother was able to gain access to the crash site (60 years later) with the permission of the Base Commander and found very small pieces of wreckage and parts off his (Lt. Frost) parachute still embedded in the desert.
In one year my Mom lost her only Brother
and her boyfriend and a close family friend.
Yes the 1940's were the best of times and the worst of times.
