On May 29, 1944, the 361st Fighter Group flew their first maximum effort with the new P-51 Mustang, and quickly proved the worth of this lethal "Yellowjacket" combination. Future ace Lt. Dale Spencer of the 376th FS, in particular, took an entire formation of Luftwaffe Me 410s to task in full view of the 401st Bomb Group Flying Fortresses that momentarily came under his solitary care. In the span of just thirty seconds. Spencer shot down four of the enemy heavy intereceptors which the bomber crews readily confirmed while the Yellowjackets accounted for ten more jagdfliegern. The cover depicts Spencer pulling up over his forth victim as the B-17s stream homeward safely in the distance. Spencer's feat was underscored by his being awarded of the Distinguished Flying Cross.
