The Curtis P40 Warhawk was a plane used a lot in the Pacific Theater of World War 2. It was used heavily by the Flying Tigers. They flew in China and Burma to help the Chinese battle the Japanese. They were the ones who painted the famous shark teeth on their P40s. This plane was used on the aircraft carriers to dogfight the Japanese and to drop bombs. It was replaced by the P52 to resolve the problems of the P40. I included links for so you can see them. (I love them. I get to see them at the Reno Air Races.)

Where do I find Information about Curtiss P-40E Warhawk Number 136504?

I found a picture of a P40 with the tail number of 136504 in old photos that my mother gave me. My father was a pilot in WWII. The pilot in this photo looks like my my father and I assume it is him. There is information painted on the fuselage above the wing and below the cockpit but I can not read it. There is no other information on the photo. I do not know when or where it was taken. My father's name was Starlin Fane Litteral and I always thought that he served in the Pacific. He passed away in 1965 when I was only 18 and I never had the opportunity to learn about his service during the war.
