63 Missions

The Tuskegee Airmen Red Tails Exhibit was at the Carolinas Aviation Museum February 26th through March 2nd.  Unfortunately, due to an engine change, the Red Tail P-51 Mustang was unable to attend.


In it's place was the spectacular P-51D, Swamp Fox, owned by Robert Dickson of Concord, North Carolina.


Even more spectacular; Air Corps pilot, Joe Gill, reunited with a P-51D Mustang---the same model that carried him on 63 combat missions over Germany during WWII.

Bob Cottom, Sr., Joe Gill, & Herbert Gill (Joe's brother.)
