Awww, blue nosers are my favorite, and I love that first picture best.

I can't wait to see Little Rebel flying this summer!

Just noticed your labels on the pictures.

In the first, I think that is Buck Pattillo rather than Alton Wallace, no?
The five kill markings, as well as the outline around the nose art lettering makes me think it is Pattillo.


I think those are changes he made after taking over the mount, right?

Tom Colby gave me (and took) the photo and he said it was Wallace.
Hopefully with as recreation of the Little Rebel paint scheme he'll
rec'v his due credit.
