image This particular P-47D was flown by Lt. Harlan Hoyt of the 49th Fighter Group, 7th Fighter Squadron for all of 5 months. The P-47s were used by the 49th FG in late 1943 to fill the gap created by worn out P-38E's. In early 1944 the three 49th FG squadrons (7th, 8th, & 9th) returned to all P-38J & P-38L status. Lt. Hoyt was killed flying his P-38L on July 4, 1945 on a strafing mission in the Cagayan Valley on Luzon in the Philippines. This made him the last 49th FG fatality of the Philippines Campaign and 35th 49th FG fighter pilot fatality of the war. -- Regards, Savageduck
