P-47D Dottie Mae Textures
2/Lt. Henry G.Mohr jr. 405th FG 511th FS was on a “presence patrol” with another P-47D pilot one day before VE-Day to brighten the prisoners in a nearby POW camp by buzzing by to let them know that Allied troops were at the outskirts. On the return, 2/Lt. Mohr flew too low and clipped the lake with his propeller causing him to dump the plane. He was captured and put in the same POW camp but, was freed by the Allied Troops a few days later. His plane was recovered from the Austrian Lake in 2005 and is being restored at the Chino CA Planes of Fame Museum. 2/Lt. Henry Mohr is said to be still alive and may well be reunited once more with his plane. The excellent P-47D freeware of J R Lucariny’s p47us.zip is required
