                        Looks very good. Does the gas cape bag have an original gas cape within?

                        Regards,

                          Unfortunately I don't have gas cape within in this early bag.

                            "Engagement Report of Shootdown

                            After my first firing of the Curtiss, I attacked a second English fighter, likewise a Curtiss, flying from the direction of the Gambut airfield. The Curtiss had spotted me and forced me to immediately turn into a downward left turn. I circled along and fired at the Curtis in a left turn from a distance of approximately 50 meters, shots hitting the engine and cockpit. I pulled up over the Curtiss and went above it since I was being attacked by two other English fighters. I did observe that the Curtiss created a large dust formation upon impact.

                            Impact location: On February 15, 1942 at 13:03 hours. 5 km southeast of Gambut airfield."

                            As a side note, some research online on Marseille's 47th and 48th air victories revealed the following:


                            "Kittyhawk Is from No. 3 Squadron RAAF, near Gambut airfield. The Kittyhawks were bounced by two Bf 109s during takeoff. Marseille's first victory was Kittyhawk I AK594; Pilot Officer P. J. "Tommy" Briggs, bailed out at an altitude of 100 m and was injured. The second victory was Kittyhawk I AK605: Flight Sergeant F. B. (Frank) Reid was killed when it crashed."
                            I just love your doc

                            here is the closest I get to Marseille
