Bud Anderson of the 425th nfs, performed many night ground attack missions. post war he became the squadron rep. we chatted quite a bit and he allowed me to borrow 4-5 squadron P-61 microfische to copy. Great guy.

I'm amazed it managed to fly with such a dent in there -- an almost perfect drag producing device.
