FRANCE - One of the best records of destruction compiled by pilots of Maj Gen Hoyt S. Vandenberg's 9th A.F. has been amassed by 1st Lt. Ralph B. Ellis, Glendale, Calif., shown here adding another symbol on the fuse-lage of his Republic P-47 Thunderbolt. Each swastika represents the destruction of 20 vehicles. From top to bottom the record reads; Armored vehicles, 100; motor transports, 160; locomotives, 60; and horse-drawn vehicles, 60. Lt. Ellis, 23-years-old, has flown 90 combat missions.
