Nov 6, 1944: I shot down our group's (357th Fighter Group) 1st Me 262. It was on final. Unsportsmanlike but what the hell https://www.chuckyeager.com/yeager-destroys-an-me-262 … @BILD @ParisMatch @LeMonde #Germany @USATODAY @USArmy @usairforce #combat #Fighter #dogfight

I think the 469th supported the 357th fighter group, maybe out of Leiston? He helped convert a P-51 into a 2-seater at one point and rebuilt a plane that got renamed “Pride of the Yankees”. Think you overlapped there but long shot you would’ve met.
