[@jeffgrier8488]

Shane, thank you and David for bringing us the fantastic history and story of both of these planes and their pilots.

Yet another interesting and informative video Shane, thank you.

[@BuffaloNavalPark]

Sweet, glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for your continued support as always, eherrmann01!

The P-39 in photo-renaissance operations carried Kodak k-24 and/or Kodak k-25 cameras. These were electrically controlled. The contact prints were either 5x5 or 5x4, with really incredible resolution.

Awesome! Thanks so much for offering a little more insight into 82nd TRS!

You're welcome as always. Happy you enjoyed!

That brought back memories. My uncle Bill Jacobsen was from Fresno and flew P36s. He later transitioned to the new P38 and flew it in North Africa. He told me he didn’t like flying the P36 because you had to straddle the drive shaft/cannon.

Ha! That is true...you have the shaft running right under your butt and between your legs. Has to be a little nerve-racking for sure! Appreciate you watching and sharing!
