Originally carried the name NORTHERN STAR on both sides of the nose. In the
spring of 1943, the name DOC replaced the left side to comply with a "Snow White
Squadron" directive. The ship was operational until 30 Nov 1943.

Along with ARKANSAS TRAVELER, I painted two versions of SNOW WHITE AND THE SEVEN
DWARFS, PRINCE CHARMING, and all "Seven Dwarfs" (three versions of
DOPEY) on B24-Ds
in the Libyan desert in Africa 1942-43. I never signed them and never got
credit.
