SAUNDERS PAYING TRIBUTE TO THE USAAF IN THE ITALIAN THEATRE DURING WWII:
Returning to base after an arduous escort mission, Captain Art Fiedler
leads a flight of P51 Mustangs from the 325th Fighter Group - the Checkertail
Clan - through the Po Valley in northern Italy seeking out targets of
opportunity amongst the retreating Axis forces, July 1944.
THE SIGNATURES
The edition is signed by the artist and hand numbered and each print is
individually hand signed and authenticated by one of the foremost Aces
in the 325th Fighter Group
Colonel ART FIEDLER
Arthur C. Fiedler – ‘Art’, the very pilot depicted in
the scene – joined the 325th FG in Italy in May 1944 and quickly
got into action with victories over three Me109s and another probable
within his first six weeks. He achieved his Ace status after downing another
Me109 over Hungary on 26 July, his second victory of the day. His final
victory was an Fw190 over Regensburg on 20 January 1945, bringing his
tally to 8 confirmed and 1 probable. Not only had ‘Art’ become
one of the Checkertails’ top Aces, he was one of the most respected
pilots in the unit. After the war he transferred to the USAF and flew
combat missions in Vietnam
