| Lt. Shuford Alexander - MTO P-39 and P-47 Pilot 350th Fighter Group Hi In researching for the MTO Group Build, I discovered that the pilot of the plane I was modelling had produced an Oral History for the University of North Texas, and had an interesting story to tell about his time with the USAAF , 346th Fighter Squadron, 350th Fighter Group. He was shot down, became a POW, escaped, and spend several months behind enemy lines in Italy. I have sought and received permission from the University and the pilot to post this Oral History here, so enjoy. cheers Peter
