Republic P-47 ?D "JUG" 1944...

Yeah, a P47 that's gotta be it. Corsair only had six guns, P51 had four? Bombers had 12+.

P-47B OR C... Assuming the plane went down in '42-'44. I would doubt that Hawaii saw many of our best WWII fighters (P-47D). Hawaii was an operational backwater by the time the "D" model started reaching front-line units (mid '43), and they we're badly needed in the ETO at that time).

If it went down late in the war, it could have been the P-47N, which was designed specifically for pacific operations, but the '42 ammo suggests to me that it was an earlier model.

What say you, USMCVet?
