As the Allied juggernaut rolled on toward the final collapse of the Third Reich in the spring of 1945, fighter aircraft of the 8th, 9th, 12th and 14th Air Forces fanned out in all directions, seeking targets of opportunity.
During the final months of World War II, the Tuskegee Airmen were extremely active escorting bombers, knocking down German fighters and strafing important ground targets. Here we see P-51 Mustangs of the 99th. Squadron, 332nd. Fighter Group, destroying a convoy of German heavy armor and trucks. In the lead is F/O Charles A. Lane, flying ‘Meatball Rap II.’
“We were honoured and privileged to have THIRTEEN of the Tuskegee Airmen sign our Group Editions, making this a valuable collector’s piece for years to come. Please note the NEW airmen who have not signed with us before. Three of the editions have a companion print, depicting the sinking of a German warship by Tuskegee P47 Thunderbolts in the Adriatic Sea on June 25, 1944” — Robert and Michelle Bailey
