This is No Drill

2nd Lt. Kenneth M. Taylor was one of the first U.S. pilots to see action in World War II. He destroyed four enemy aircraft on the "date which will live in infamy," December 7, 1941 at Pearl Harbor - wearing a pair of tuxedo pants and a uniform shirt he scrambled into after going to a dance and playing poker the previous night. "I painted him in his P40B alongside a Japanese Val that was part of Lt. Commander Zenji Abe's attack force, against the lush Hawaiian hillside."
