P-40L Warhawks of the 325th FG commanded by Lt.Col. Gordon
H. Austin, attack a lighthouse on the North African coastline
in early 1943. Lighthouses became a common target of the Checkertail
Clan, as there had been reports indicating that they
were being used by the Germans as observation posts for early
warning of approaching Allied forces. Gordon named his P-40 Lighthouse
Louie. |
