Check out the Mysteries page to learn the identity of Annie, a P-51D whose identity had escaped us for quite some time!  Thanks to Peter Randall for the sleuthing.

]]>Mon, 02 Jun 2025 14:18:58 GMThttp://www.4thfightergroupassociation.org/4th-fighter-group-association-blog/new-image-added-to-mysteries-pageHi all,

It's been far too long since we made an entry here.  That said, we've continued to update existing profiles and content, making corrections or additions as necessary.

We have just added a new photo to the 4th Fighter Group mysteries page, a late-war P-51D named Peanuts, which we believe belonged to 336.  Take a peek and let us know if you have the gen!

We will be sure to post any news or additional updates in this space.

9 June: updated profiles for Ganofsky, Shilke (both 336) and Simpson (335)  

Cheers,

​Tim]]>Wed, 18 Oct 2023 03:40:22 GMThttp://www.4thfightergroupassociation.org/4th-fighter-group-association-blog/just-back-from-savannahHi all,

Just returned from the 2023 reunion.  Will be adding photos to the site in small groups over the next several weeks, to profile pages as well as other gallery shots.  First up, shots taken aboard RMS Queen Mary in November 1945 during the voyage back to the States.

More to come! 

Cheers,

​Tim

Autumn has arrived, and the foliage color is spectacular up here - as usual.

We've done a quick revamp to all Service Group pages.  Expanded - but still brief! - unit histories now can be found on the unit roster pages.  Previously more concise write ups for each unit were on the 33rd Service Group home page.  Now, a list of the units is there, but the user is now directed to the unit 's roster page for the details. 

In other news, over forty more profile pages have been added, predominantly for the 1770th OS&M Co and the 1063rd MPC. 

Cheers!

Tim

Have started working on the long neglected 1063rd Military Police Company (Aviation) profiles  Have added 8 recently and more are on the way.  As always, if you have a relative friends who served with the 4th and its associated service units, and don't see him listed here, send us the gen!  We do not have beginning to end rosters for any of the units, and there are no doubt folks missing.

Enjoy what's left of the summer!

Cheers,

Tim
