Here's something you don't see everyday and which I thought might be of interest to some here, a B-10 being used with RNZAF/RAF uniform...
This is Flight Lieutenant Jack Cleland of the RNZAF. Jack was the only Kiwi to fly a tour attached to a USAAF fighter unit, that being the 363rd FS. Jack was actually good mates with Chuck Yeager with whom he served in the 363rd.
Not very often you see a B-10 being worn with British/Commonwealth uniform and especially still sporting its USAAF squadron badge. This photo is after Jack has returned to RAF service and he'd obviously taken his B-10 with him!
