HISTORY ASPECTS:The North American P-51B Mustang "Bonny Bea" flown by Captain Lee "Dutch" Eisenhart of the 504th Fighter Squadron 339th Fighter Group played a significant role in the aerial combat operations of World War II. Based at RAF Fowlmere in England the 339th Fighter Group became operational in early 1944 tasked with providing bomber escort and conducting fighter sweeps deep into enemy territory. The introduction of the P-51B Mustang with its superior range and speed allowed the 339th to protect Allied bombers all the way to strategic targets within Germany effectively countering the Luftwaffes attempts to disrupt the Allied bombing campaign.Captain Lee "Dutch" Eisenhart flying "Bonny Bea" quickly distinguished himself as a skilled pilot and leader. The Mustangs advanced performance powered by the Packard-built Rolls-Royce Merlin engine gave Eisenhart and his fellow pilots a significant edge in combat. With its long-range capabilities "Bonny Bea" participated in some of the most critical missions of the European Theater
