Dang, I've seen that bird fly over my place, about 13 mi. WSW of Chino. Loss of a historic plane and RIP for the deceased. -

Got this on Facebook marketplace for $30 today and was freaking out when I picked it up because this has to be the deal of the century. Also got it with an American campaign medal -

Very shocking news out of Chino: https://abcnews.go.com/US/2-killed-after-world-war-ii-era-crashes/story?id=111157876 The Lockheed Model 12A Electra Junior which crashed shortly after takeoff from Chino Airport was built as a C-40A with serial number 38-540, and it along with many other C-40s was redesignated UC-40. It was loaned to the Yanks Air Museum in 1998 and was restored to static display in 2006. Link: https://yanksair.org/exhibition/lockheed-uc-40a-electra-jr/ -

Glad to contribute to your post and I agree, Hilliard most certainly would have been issued a Transport service clasp. I did a little research on Hilliard and he seems to have been a fascinating guy and somewhat of a financial mover and shaker. The Vanderbilts and other wealthy New York families have flocked to Asheville for more than a century so I was wondering if he was a real tarheel or a New Yorker born at Asheville. Look forward to reading your post about him! Here's the numbers for issuance of the various service clasps. -

Earlier this month, aviation writer Gerald H. Balzer passed away at age 97. He was a talented aviation historian-turned World War II fighter pilot who had the opportunity to write a number of military aviation books, and I was proud to have read one of his books, titled American Secret Pusher Fighters of World War II: XP-54, XP-55, and XP-56. Balzer will sorely be missed. -
