Uncovering 5 Amazing Facts About the P-38 Lightning

Lockheed P-38 Lightning is one of the most recognizable fighter planes of WWII. Despite famous episodes in which it participated, such as the shootdown of Admiral Yamamoto, this aircraft might be a bit underrated compared to some other fighters. For example, did you know which airplane first escorted Allied heavy bombers all the way to Germany? Which top American aces flew the P-38? Which famous writer of the 20th century was a P-38 pilot? In what unusual location did the first confirmed kill for the P-38 take place and who scored the first American kill against the Luftwaffe? Again, in a rather unusual place.
