Description
71 Eagle Squadron pilot Flying Officer Mike 'Mac' McPharlin taxies out in his Spitfire Vb for the epic Operation Jubilee on August 19, 1942. After a spirited dogfight, Mac claimed one Ju 88 probably destroyed on this mission, one of several flown that long day. A little over a month later the three American-manned Royal Air Force 'Eagle' squadrons (71, 121, and 133) were transferred to US control, becoming the nucleus of the 8th Air Force's legendary 4th Fighter Group.
