Not sure what to say?

Colonel Fiedler was in my father's fighter group in WWII and my dad had the greatest respect for him. They reunited several times over the years, as the 325th held annual reunions for several decades after the war.

I will always remember his checkered tennis shoes that matched the checkered tail on his P-51 Mustang. I enjoyed the time I spent next to him at the Camarillo Air Show, sharing stories and photos. Fly high Art!
