To revive an old post: this plane was assigned to the 522nd Fighter Bomber Squadron 27th FBG. The 27th identified their planes by the use of 2 letter combos on the tail with the lower letter being the plane-in-squadron.. For whatever reason the 523rd FBS used "C" and the 524th FBS used "A". Also the early markings included red spinners for the 522nd with the 523rd having blue and 524th white. Later MTO theater markings required red noses and yellow wing stripes for all fighter type aircraft.
