“…The 475th Fighter Group was officially activated at Amerly Field in Australia on May 15, along with three constituent squadrons: the 431st, 432nd, and 433rd. The groups commander would be Lieutenant Colonel George Prentice, who had previously commanded the 39th Fighter Squadron when it was the only P-38 outfit in the South West Pacific.”
