F-15C 78-0543 is assigned to the 114th FS ‘Eager Beavers’ and on January 7, 2020 at Kingsley Field ANG Base, Klamath Falls, OR it was unveiled wearing its new paint scheme. The scheme commemorates the heroic actions of David R. Kingsley, bombardier on B-17 “Sandman” during a raid on Ploesti, Romania. The B-17 was hit and falling and everyone was baling out. Kingsley spotted the wounded tail-gunner whose parachute was missing so Kingsley gave the gunner his own parachute. Kingsley died and 75 years later is being honored for his supreme sacrifice with this special scheme.
