Spencer Tracy returning as a guiding spirit looking after young P-38 pilot Van Johnson.

Yamamoto shot down! (1944, B&W, 4:00) The P-38 Squadron that shot down Admiral Yamamoto after a long distance interception in the Pacific is depicted. The film includes purported P-38 gun camera footage of the Admiral’s Betty bomber going down in flames.

P-38 Reconnaissance Pilot (1944, B&W, 29:00) Starring William Holden as Lt. “Packy” Cummings, this short feature shows that photo recon pilots (photo Joes) had one of the riskiest, highest impact jobs in the war.

P-40

In the John Wayne movie: Flying Tigers, (1942) real Curtiss P-40s are featured. A New York Times critic called the P-40 “the true stars” of the film. Republic Studios also built replicas for the film due to material shortages during the war.
