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. |
