62nd FS

Disney himself took on a personal project for the war effort which was creating unique insignia to not only bring humor to units, but to help boost morale at home and overseas. More and more of Disney’s art was used as decals on tanks, trucks, bombs, planes and many different types of military transport and equipment. The boxing bulldog was presented to Sgt. Seymour Pine by Walt Disney, himself, while serving in the 62nd Fighter Squadron as a Stars and Stripes reporter. (Courtesy photo from Richard Pine)
