"Shutter-bug Chaperon" (actual spelling-I've got a closeup) used for escort of photo recon missions and assigned to 7th Photo Recon Group and [I think!] 22nd PRS. Light or white rudder is the clue.
 
42-106742 was in a dive bombing attack when this occurred.

Very cool. Never saw that on drop tanks before

EDIT: That photo is in the Squadron book, "Checkertails The 325th Fighter Group in the Second World War" (Photo Credit Checkertail Clan). The aircraft belonged to Maj. John R Burman, plane #12. The "Three Bees" nose art is on both sides

EDIT THE EDIT: Quite the seller this guy is. Scrolled down to see what else he had: modern pinup girl sold as WW2, German UFOs, one, the caption says, "....in pursuit of aircraft...."
