The USAAF 52nd Fighter Group enjoyed an outstanding record in World War II, but to date its story has never been told.
Activated in January 1941, it moved to England in July 1942 for an assignment with the Eighth Air Force. It flew combat missions in Spitfires to France during the summer of 1942 before being reassigned to the invasion force attacking North Africa in November 1942.
After moving to North Africa, it was assigned to the Twelfth Air Force and was again equipped with Spitfires. As part of the Twelfth Air Force, it flew combat missions in the Tunisian campaign, and during the invasion of Sicily.
In mid-1944, the 52nd was reassigned to the Fifteenth Air Force and converted to P-51 Mustangs. During the remainder of the war, it flew bomber escort and strafing missions to targets in Italy, France, Germany, Czechoslovakia, Austria, Hungary, Rumania, and Yugoslavia. For its outstanding service the Group was twice awarded the Distinguished Unit Citation.
During its long campaign, the Group destroyed more than 425 enemy aircraft in aerial combat and damaged 135 plus many more on the ground. The 52nd Fighter Group produced 21 Aces.

THE BASIC IDEA behind this book is to show you how to build armor models, starting at the most basic level of kit assembly and painting and taking you all the way through to advanced projects in step-by-step fashion. Although the material published on real armored vehicles has come in a virtual flood over the past dozen years, little has been published about the modeling aspect of this hobby. This book will help fill that gap. If you've never built a military vehicle model before, this book will show you how, but if you've been building models for a year or two - or even several years - you'll find this book invaluable. In it, author Shep Paine explains his techniques in a manner so clear that you'll be able to put them to work immediately in your modeling. In fact. a brief lesson or two from Shep may be just what you need to "break through" and boost your skills to the next higher level. So climb aboard! If you want your next armor model to be a whole lot better than your last - or the one you're working on now - then MODELING TANKS AND MILITARY VEHICLES is the book for you. As an example this book contains a step-by-step section explaining how to build a superdetailed M51 iSherman and M25 Tank Transporter.
