The reason I ask is, I read in an interview that Dick Ayers was initially very put-off by Jack Kirby's LACK of authenticity when it came to weapons. Dick said he would re-draw all of Jack's guns so they'd look right. Now, that tells me Dick was someone who cared very much for historical authenticity, especially in a war book. Since SGT. FURY had become Dick's book, I find it hard to imagine him drawing airplanes that weren't right for the period. I mean, he was there.
