Wonderful & Rare WWII USAAF 530th Fighter Squadron "The Yellow Scorpions" Unit History

This is a wonderful and rare "Yellow Scorpions" unit history on the United States Army Air Forces 530th Fighter Squadron, 311th Fighter Group, attached to the 10th and later 14th Air Forces. The 530th flew P-51 Mustangs and A-36 Apaches within the China-Burma-India theatre. This book is loaded with black and white pictures and some color illustrations (1st Squadron insignia shown above), has a unit roster and also has a great painted cover.

Circa post-World War II.

110 pages (some single-sided) with black and white photographs and color illustrations; approximately 11-1/4" in height and 8-3/4" in width and 1" in thickness.

Vinylized cotton cover with painted detail, textured paper, cotton lace.

Three hole-punched cover/pages, lace binding.

7 (Very Fine): The book shows some aging/yellowing (one page has a square-shaped discolored area at its center) and has no writing or tears; some light wear to back of cover.

As with all my artifacts, this piece is guaranteed to be original, as described.
