Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Formed with the best available fighter pilots in the Southwest Pacific, the 475th Fighter Group was the pet project of Fifth Air Force chief, General George C Kenney. From the time the group entered combat in August 1943 until the end of the war it was the fastest scoring group in the Pacific and remained one of the crack fighter units in the entire US Army Air Forces with a final total of some 550 credited aerial victories. Amongst its pilots were the leading American aces of all time, Dick Bong and Tom McGuire, with high-scoring pilots Danny Roberts and John Loisel also serving with the 475th. This book details these pilots, the planes they flew and the campaigns and battles they fought in including such famous names as Dobodura, the Huon Gulf, Oro Bay, Rabaul, Hollandia, the Philippines and Luzon.

Book excerpt: Free masking foil and decal sheets for modelers Bonus scale photo-etched cockpit details A complete history of this USAAF P-38 Lightning unit, which operated in the Pacific theater, providing an intriguing look at the clashes between the 475 FG and the Japanese in the Philippines and more.

Bong (40 kills) and Thomas B. McGuire, Jr. (38 kills), both Medal of Honor recipients. By the war's end, no fewer than 38 other pilots from the 475th had achieved ace status while flying exclusively P-38s. The book also includes bonus scale photo-etched cockpit details.
