Mark--I am curious if you have talked to any of the pilots that flew in the 25th or 26th Fighter Squadrons, 51st Fighter Group in the 1942 1943 time frame in Assam. My father, Capt then Major then Lt. Col. David W Wallace served under Col. Homer Sanders and, after Sanders left, was Operations Officer for 51st under Col. Barr. He and Col. Barr earned a Silver Star for a joint mission in late 1943, flying the newly arrived P-51s. The 51st HQ pilots normally flew with the 26th. He and Barr flew off the Ranger in May 1942, hence my interest on that subject ( thanks for the info on that post-I will check Molesworth.) Thanks, David W. Wallace, Jr.
