Item Description
Bruce Materson, WWII USMC fighter pilor, singature in black ink, on 1953 3c FDC honoring the National Guard, cacheted & unaddressed. Member of the Black Sheep Squadron. The call sign "Black Sheep" was chosen by the squadron to commemorate the unusual way in which the squadron had been formed. Originally the squadron called itself "Boyington's Bastards" after its commander, but this label was considered unacceptable by the press. The pilots ranged from experienced combat veterans, with several air-to-air victories to their credit, to new replacement pilots from the United States. Major Boyington and Major Stan Bailey were given permission to form the unassigned pilots into a squadron, with the understanding that they would have less than four weeks to have them fully trained and ready for combat. They were very successful.S & h only 75 cents for each additional item sent with this one.
