UPL 24738
IMAGEP-51D 44-72244 B6-F. 363rd Fighter Squadron. Again, said to be photographed at Eschborn in 1946 this view shows there to be fifteen victory markings on the forward fuselage. Major Donald H Bochkay was the pilot of B6-F throughout the 357th’s stay in the ETO but he rotated home in October 1945. This a/c bears the fifteen victories that appeared on Major Bochkay’s later P-51s but does not have his personal insignia of a winged Ace of Clubs.
