P-47 N Thunderbolt

Urban L."Ben"Drew flew a P-47N "682" SN 44-88492 named Detroit Miss 2 out of Iwo Jima in 1945. This is my best guess as to how the "logo" may have looked on his "Jug", the only difference being the bomb graphic being removed from behind the logo. In this case the type is not reversed out but painted black in keeping with the shiny, clean finish and no camouflage. The tail would be yellow with a black vertical bar behind the "star & bar" insignia. I plan to do a version of this in color.
