Just to clarify Tontouta is on New Caledonia, not New Guinea.

Then to the best of my knowledge no "Lightning MkII's" were deployed by
the 5th AF in the SouthWest Pacific, or any other theater. The
converted "Lighting MkI's" were mean to be brought to the standard
P-38E specification, not P-38G. The converted AC were retained the USA
as advanced trainers and modification test platforms and never came
close to any combat zone.
