Howeve, the reference to the Pink Panthers of the Long Range Desert Group is from WWII so totally contemporary with your P-40 concern - or did you miss that connection?
actually, it has no relavance to my P-40 concern, as the RAF as far as I know never painted P-40's pink, or even a solid
desert sand. you've pointed out Britishvehicles painted pink, but no RAF P-40's painted likewise. so as far as that being
a connection to American P-40's.. then I must have missed your point . sorry.
