RF-51D 44-11913 operated with the polka-dot markings of the 45th TRS, and was
named Tulie, Scotty & ?; the wife of the pilot who named the aircraft was pregnant
when he left for Korea, but he was killed in another aircraft before the unnamed
child was born. The unit retained the Mustang’s name in his honour.
