Photograph was taken on Biak Island (c. July 1944), they had just returned from a combat mission to an unrecorded enemy area. The P-38 was assigned to the 431st Fighter Squadron because the propeller spinner is a solid color--red. The spinners in Teddy's squadron were blue and only the back half were painted. Could very well have been McGuire's plane # 131, since he was assigned to the 431st at the time.
