A P-40 Warhawk
Subject
The topic of the resource
This type of plane was flown in the Pacific Theater of Operations (PTO) by Colonel Laughlin
Description
An account of the resource
The P-40 was the most readily available fighter for U.S. forces after the attack at Pearl Harbor. Although most of the fleet was destroyed in the attack, there were still some planes that survived. Colonel Joseph Laughlin flew this type of plane as a pilot in the 19th Pursuit Squadron based at Wheeler Field in Hawaii. He flew over 350 operational hours against the Japanese in the PTO, with most of those hours probably flying this type of aircraft.

Title
A name given to the resource
A Lockheed P-38
Subject
The topic of the resource
A plane flown in both the Pacific Theater of Operations (PTO) as well as the European Theater of Operations (ETO)
Description
An account of the resource
The P-38 Lightning was a thoroughly capable fighter plane. Weighing in at the same maximum weight as the P-47, it could accomplish the same mission types with similar armaments. Utilized in both the Pacific and European Theaters of Operation, it is one of the only fighter planes to remain in production from before WWII until the completion of it. Colonel Laughlin could have flown this aircraft on missions in the PTO, but there is no indication it was ever assigned to any squadron he was in. The P-38 would have been present at the Invasion of Normandy, however, and Colonel Laughlin and the 362nd Fighter Group would have flown with them at that time.

A type of plane flown by Colonel Joseph Laughlin at Wheeler Field in Hawaii.
Description
An account of the resource
Colonel Joseph Laughlin flew the P-36 Hawk, but in what capacity it is not mentioned. It was rendered obsolete by the time fighting intensified in the Pacific and European Theaters of Operation, and it was relegated to training purposes only at that point. However, there were several undamaged P-36 Hawks during the attack at Pearl Harbor. Several pilots managed to take off in heavy fire and tried to mount an offense, with limited success. It proved to still be an effective fighter plane in limited combat, but it was not relied upon once reinforcements were sent in the form of the P-40.

This medium bomber was the most accurate bomber in the Ninth Air Force, but it still required escort from P-47 Thunderbolts
Description
An account of the resource
The Martin B-26 Marauder was flown in every Theater of Operations during the war. Although very accurate in bombing, they were vulnerable to enemy aircraft, requiring bomber escorts from P-47s and P-51s. Also, Colonel Joseph Laughlin managed to pester General Otto Weyland to the point that he offered up a B-26 for the 362nd Fighter Group's use; if they could get it running. The grounds crew did and the 362nd F.G. became the envy of every fighter group in the Ninth Air Force as they used the Marauder to get supplies and R & R for the men.
