Bill Overstreet - P-51 Pilot - RIP


Recommended Posts

Blue Skies; particularly poignant for me as a few days ago I broke out a Tamiya P-51C and made a start on "Berlin Express".

RIP Sir

Overstreet was one of Yeager's wingmen at one point wasnt he?

R.I.P. Sir.

Possible, of course, but not mentioned here. http://www.cebudanderson.com/overstreet.htm

He does say on that page: " I flew with several [other flight leaders] until I flew as “Tail End Charlie’ with Anderson. From then on, I tried to fly with him whenever possible. I thought then (and still do) that he was the greatest. His record sure proves it."

@ Don (post above) - you're welcome.
