The Third and Final Release in the 60th Anniversary WWII Trilogy, The USAAF In The Pacific 1942 - 1945 One of the most successful of the P-38 equipped units was the 475th
Fighter Group, 'Satan's Angels', and it is the P-38s of this famous unit
that Nicolas Trudgian has portrayed in his tribute to the American Air
Forces that made Victory in the Pacific possible. It is March 1945 and the
P-38s of the 475th FG are involved in a huge dogfight with Japanese Zeros
over the coast of Indo-China. Flying "Pee Wee V" is Lt Ken Hart of the
431st Fighter Squadron, who has fatally damaged a Zero in a blistering head
on encounter. The second P-38 – "Vickie" – belongs to Captain John 'Rabbit'
Pietz, who would end the War an Ace with six victories. The Anniversary Edition
