America Strikes Back by Robert Taylor. \u003cp\u003e The very first air combat fought by American pilots following the surprise attack upon Pearl Harbor. In less than one hour America struck back in a war that was to end in total victory. As the assault mounted on the Pacific Fleet in Pearl Harbor, simultaneously the air base at Wheeler Field came under heavy attack. Two young USAAF pilots, Kenneth Taylor and George Walsh, quickly got their P-40 Tomahawks airborne. Winging southwards towards Ewa Field they ripped into a dozen or more enemy planes attacking the marine field. Diving into the formation they each downed Val fighter-bombers. Robert Taylors painting shows Ken Taylor in his P-40 tomahawk, with George Walsh in close company, bringing down his second enemy aircraft on December 7, 1941, an Aichi D-3Al  Val dive-bomber. In the background palls of smoke rise from Hangar 6 housing the naval float planes, and the up-turned battleship Oklahoma. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eOnly 2 prints remain of this sold out edition.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSigned by Colonel William Dickman, \u003cbr\u003eColonel David Tex Hill (deceased), \u003cbr\u003eLt General Joe Moore, \u003cbr\u003eBrigadier General Kenneth Taylor (deceased) \u003cbr\u003eand \u003cbr\u003eColonel Earl Williams. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e  Signed limited edition of 550 prints.  \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePaper size 31 inches x 24 inches (79cm x 61cm)\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Military Aviation Art Prints","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54136130306381,"sku":null,"price":250.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0810\/5449\/9149\/files\/2026NEWrt0299.jpg?v=1781873491"}],"url":"https:\/\/militaryaviationartprints.com\/collections\/aircraft-val.oembed","provider":"Military Aviation Art Prints","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
