Capt. Lee Roy Chadwell & P-47D, "My San Antonio Rose", H56

Hello to you all
Anyone has a photo of Lee Roy Chadwell and his P-47D, "My San Antonio Rose", H56.  Chad's plane was unusual in that he had three (3) rear view mirrors mounted after being jumped by a Japanese fighter from the 6 o'clock position, and didn't realize the enemy was there until the tracers started shooting by! 
 
Thanks in advance
Dimitris

    Dimitris,
     
        Here's a picture of him from the "Memoirs of the 58th Fighter Group,  April 1, 1945"
