“The Eskimos”—Gerald Johnson, Tommy McGuire and Wally Jordan—all joined 9th Fighter Squadron, the Flying Knights, in April of 1943 and flew combat with Dick Bong. Tommy’s behavior alienated many of the Flying Knights of the 9th, and he was transferred to the 475th Fighter Group in June as a result. In this photo, taken a year after his transfer, the Eskimos had been reunited shortly before the invasion of the Philippines. Barbara Curtis
