Col. Taylor kept his P-38J with the 49th FS during his time as CO of the 14th FG. There is no record that he scored any victories in this particular fighter. Taylor was struck down with polio and transferred out of the group on July 17. His command was transferred to Col. Daniel Campbell.
The P-40s of the 11th FS 343rd FG were painted in a variation on the theme made famous by the American Volunteer Group (A.V.G., also known as Flying Tigers) and were known as the Aleutian Tigers. This version with a white spinner was one of the latest P-40Es to still be flying when attached to the 11th Fighter Squadron 1943.
