The group became operational in December 1943, flying the P-47 Thunderbolt before transitioning to the legendary P-51 Mustang in April 1944—the long-range fighter that changed the air war over Europe.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe 359th consisted of three fighter squadrons: the 368th, 369th, and 370th Fighter Squadrons. These squadrons flew a critical mix of bomber escort missions protecting B-17 Flying Fortresses and B-24 Liberators on deep penetration raids into Germany, as well as fighter sweeps, ground attack missions against enemy airfields and transportation, and armed reconnaissance missions across occupied Europe.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eP-51 Mustang - The Fighter That Won Air Superiority\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe North American P-51 Mustang was the finest American fighter of World War II and arguably the best all-around piston-engine fighter ever built.

The distinctive checkered nose markings and squadron colors made 359th Fighter Group Mustangs instantly recognizable in the skies over Europe.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCombat Record and Legacy\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eFrom December 1943 through May 1945, the 359th Fighter Group flew hundreds of combat missions over Nazi-occupied Europe. The group's pilots claimed numerous aerial victories against the Luftwaffe, destroyed enemy aircraft on the ground, and provided crucial escort protection for the heavy bomber formations that struck at the heart of Nazi Germany's war machine.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e359th Fighter Group pilots earned Distinguished Unit Citations, Distinguished Flying Crosses, Air Medals, and other decorations for their courage and skill in combat.
