Historical Usage

The period from July 1943 to January 1947 saw intensive US air operations during World War II and directly after the conflict. In July 1943, the U.S. Army Air Forces and U.S. Navy introduced characteristic national insignia—a star with a white circle and horizontal bars on a blue background, later enhanced with red outline. This marking can be found on aircraft such as the P-47 Thunderbolt, P-51 Mustang, P-38 Lightning, B-17 Flying Fortress, B-24 Liberator, and F6F Hellcat. These insignia were used on various fronts—from Western Europe, through the Pacific, to the period of peace in the first postwar months.
