"By Request"
During May 1944, the 332nd Fighter Group - 99th Fighter
Squadron, provides escort service for the 15th Air Force toward
a target in South Germany. The 332nd Fighter Group, under the
command of then Lt. Col. Benjamin O. Davis Jr., inspects his
formation during flight just before reaching their target, led by
Major William "Wild Bill" Campbell and his right wingman, Flight
Officer Charles A. Lane, Jr. They were one of the most
successful P-51 groups of the war. From mid 1944 until the end
of the war in Europe, the 332nd Fighter Group flew an
incredible number of missions. The title, "By Request," is a
reference to bomber crews who asked to be escorted by the
332nd because of its record of never losing a bomber under
their protection to enemy fighters during the entire war.
