Three P-51 Mustangs, painted with black-and-white invasion stripes reminiscent of the Allied markings used during the 1944 Normandy invasion, fly a tight formation for the airshow crowd. The Mustang's combination of speed, range, and firepower made it the premier American long-range escort fighter of World War II. Photographed at a Tennessee air museum airshow, June 7, 2014.
