Product description

Exitos' ninth decal set is entitled "Lightning Strike" and includes markings for three P-38s:
- P-38G-13-LO, s/n 43-2204, 'Beautiful Lass', flown by Lt. John G. 'Jump' O'Neill of 9th FS / 49th FG, Dobodura, New Guinea, late October 1943.
- P-38F-1-LO, s/n 41-7578, 'Marjorie Ann', possibly flown by Maj. Richard Ira 'Dick' Bong during his war bond tours, USA, late summer 1944.
- P-38G-15-LO, s/n 43-2475, 'Babe', as flown by Lt. Edgar L. Yarberry of 48th FS / 14th FG, El Bathan, Tunisia, second half of June 1943, and as flown by Lt. George P. Brown of 96th FS / 82nd FG, Italy, autumn 1943.

The two P-38Gs feature sexy nose art, whilst the P-38F sports a rather unusual finish. 'Babe' and 'Marjorie Ann' have never been reproduced in decal form before, whilst our depiction of 'Beautiful Lass' is a result of a careful study of the available photo material and differs from all previous interpretations. Decals include bonus markings carried by 'Babe' during its later service with the 82nd FG. Illustrations were created by Andrzej Sadlo.
