Manufactured by Barnstormers exclusively for the Military Aviation Museum. This custom designed polo shirt is 100% cotton PIMA piqué knit.
This striking shirt and our Mustang, has the group markings of the 353rd Fighter Group with black and yellow checkers. Known as the "Slybirds," the group consisted of the 350th, 351st and 352nd Fighter Squadrons.
The aircraft specific markings are those of Lieutenant Colonel “Wild Bill” Bailey, deputy group commander, and includes his six aerial victory markings. He called his original aircraft “Double-Trouble” because he left two girlfriends at home in the United States, and the name became “Double-Trouble Two” when his first Mustang crashed while being flown by a squadron-mate. European cut, we recommend ordering one size up from your usual size.
