DONE: SBD-3 Dauntless "White 5", Swede Vejtasa, USS Yorktown CV-5, 1942, Group Build

Well, since everybody else has started I'll do it as well....
I'll do Stanley "Swede" Vejtasa's SBD-3 Dauntless from USS Yorktown, the machine in which he tangled with Zeros during the battle of Coral Sea, May 1942. The Dauntless is Accurate Miniatures 1/48 crate.

The Wildcat is for my other GB..

I'll have to wait another two weeks before I can start, sínce I'm in Sweden visiting family and friends....
