T-6 flagship of 39th FTS painted in WW2 P-51 colors

The 39th Flying Training Squadron’s T-6 flagship was recently repainted to match the scheme of the P-51 Mustang flown during WW2 by Capt. Leroy Grosshuesch.

Grosshuesch was commander of the then-designated 39th Fighter Squadron when he sank a Japanese destroyer off Goto Retto near Kyushu, Japan on Jul. 30, 1945.
