P-51D (serial unknown) - Lt. Charles White "Creamer's Dream"
301st FS, 332nd FG, Tuskegee Airmen, Italy 1944.

White was one of the first 332nd FG pilots to fly a P-51D. After joining the group as a replacement pilot, he had received a war-weary P-51C. White's complaints about its unreliability led his commanding officer to allocate this early P-51D directly to Lt. White. So inspired by the allocation White painted a nude on both sides of the new fighter's fuselage, with an rear view to port and front view to starboard.
