The Yoxford Boys Overall prints size approx. 20" x 28" / 50cms x 71 cms. When a radio broadcast by German propagandist Lord Haw Haw sneeringly announced the secret deployment of the 357th Fighter Group to England in 1943 as the “arrival of “The Yoxford Boys” it became the nick-name for one of the most potent air combat groups of WW II. Based at Leiston, East Anglia, P-51B Mustang “OLD CROW” was the personal aircraft of Captain Clarence E ‘Bud’ Anderson, 363rd Fighter Squadron/ 357th Fighter Group. On June 29 1944 ‘Bud’ was leading his Squadron when they engaged enemy fighters on an escort mission to Leipzig. In the ensuing fight that day Anderson shot down three FW190’s in a short period of time. Captain Clarence E ‘Bud’ Anderson flew two tours and 116 combat missions with a total of 16.25 kills in the "Old Crow". All the prints are signed by the artist. *The Artist Proofs and Remarques are also signed Triple Ace Fighter Pilot Colonel Clarence E. “Bud” Anderson – decorated 25 times, including 2 Legion of Merits, 5 DFC’s, the Bronze Star, 16 Air Medals, the French Legion of Honour, the French Croix de Guerre, as well as many campaign and service ribbons.
