Flown by Lt. Col. John Meyer. After flying P-40's and scoring three victories in a P-47, his first Mustang named Lambie II, and then Petie, was where he scored most of his kills in. Petie 2nd, was Meyer's mount for only two victories and scored more in another P-51D, Petie 3rd. He was reassigned as Deputy Group Commander in November 1944. Meyer claimed two Mig-15 kills in Korea before retiring as a General in 1974.
