Semper F1 Skies by John D Shaw
Overall print size 27" wide x 32 1/2" high
This brand new release is a stunning tribute to US marine pilots in the Pacific and one of the best portraits of the F4U Corsair by any artist. Captain Archie Glenn Donahue of VMF-112's "Wolfpack". becomes an ace in a day in the skies
near Guadalcanal in May 1943. He would repeat this remarkable feat 2 years later, after shooting down five enemy planes while on service aboard the USS Bunker Hill, establishing himself as one of the finest Aces in US marine aviation history.
With the debut of the effectively lethal F4U Corsair, Marine and Navy pilots would soon gain and maintain air superiority throughout the Solomon Islands region during the war in the Pacific.
