had
entered
service
with
the
US
Navy
a
year
prior
to
the
Japanese
attack
on
Pearl
Horbor,
replocing
the
unpopular
Brewster

By
the
time
of
the
crucial
battles
for
Midway
and

become
the
most
numerous
variant
and

to
gain
the
upper
hand
on
the

notes:

seemed
to
have
old
tail
markings
overpainted
in
fresher
colours
that
appeared
darker.
This
can

recreated

Aircraft
flown
by
First
Lieutenant
James
E.
Swett,
VMF-221
,
Marine
Air
Group
12,
United
States
Marine
Corps,
Henderson
Field,
Guadalcanal,
1943.
12094
is
frequently
depicted
with
kill
markings
under
the
cockpit
but
according
to
Grumman
archivists
the
F4F
Wildcat
that
1st
Lt.
Swett
flew
didn
’
t
have
kill
markings
because
it
was
his
first
combat
engagement
on
April
7,
1943.
He
shot
down
his
first
seven
enemy
aircraft
that
day,
but
had
to
ditch
his
aeroplane
in
the
ocean,
so
the
actual
craft
he
flew
was
lost
that
same
day.
When
1st
Lt.
Swett
returned
to
flying
he
immediately
transitioned
into
the
F4U
Corsair.
