This is a repaint of the FDGv2 Donationware F4F-4 Wildcat
F4F-4 white 50, flown by Captain Joseph Jacob Foss, VMF-121, USMC, Guadalcanal 12 November 1942 Executive Officer to Major Leonard K 'Duke' Davis, Foss scored his first kill on 13 October 1942. Judged 'too old' for fighters, he was a natural 'shot', and this eventually led to the last of his many requests for transfer from a recce unit to be approved. Foss flew white 50 for several of his victories. On 12 November 1942, for instance, he downed two 'Bettys' and a single Zero to notch up numbers 20, 21 and 22. White 50 was entirely representative of Cactus Air Force F4Fs, with no personal or unit markings. Thanks to the crew at FDGv2 for providing us this great plane!! Please take the time to read the original read me, that I have included.
