This plane survived Anti-Submarine days in the 479th AS, flew
under the 482nd BG banner in the early days of the Carpetbaggers
at Alconbury and Watton, was flown heavily during the summer of
1944 and on into 1945, being last repaired at Carnaby in late
April of 1945. Still on the July 1945 inventory report, it was
probably scrapped shortly thereafter. 17 combat missions in May
