Capt Dallas Clinger P-40 ace 16th FS China 1942

I'm assuming the ladies never put up much of a fight with Capt. Clinger.

[TAdan]

Great shot Jack. Smoooooth.

[Obergrafeter]

So was "MAX" of Mash fame his twin brother?

Dallas was a gunslinger-- no doubt. He had a business in Alpine, Wyoming after the war called the Flying Saddle Motel which had a bar as well. Behind the bar was a large picture of him in his P-40. His aircraft had the "Holding My Own" carricature on the vertical of the chinaman peeing on the rising sun. People that knew him better said he was a fresh out of the 1850's kind of guy ready to fight and not afraid to get into a fray-- no matter what the odds. I stopped by the motel, rebuilt after a fire destroyed the original, now owned by new owners, last summer. They told me at that time Dallas was still living.

Dallas died over 20 years ago.
He made beautiful totem poles that he carved with a chainsaw

Actually it was a cowboy!

[Nathan]

The most modeled P-40E.

The most modeled P-40E.

And the subject of a very fine restoration. Too bad she does not fly any longer.
