WWII 'No Sake Tonight"print by John D. Shaw
World War II was a time unlike any other in the history of aerial
warfare, and a time of extraordinary fighter aces. By the end of the war
in 1945, many of the names of these brave young men had become
household names across America, many of them retaining that fame for
decades to come. A number of these great pilots lost their lives toward
the end of the War, either in combat, training accidents stateside or
for other unrelated reasons, so consequently were not as generally well
known.
Such is the case for the subject of this painting. The P-38
Lighting “T’Rigor Mortis” was flown by one of the 475th Fighter Group’s
great aces, Francis Lent. In this scene, Lent is shown on the last
mission in which he scored an aerial victory over New Guinea in 1944, in
the last of his P-38 mounts, “T-Rigor Mortis III”. The politically
incorrect title for this scene in which a Ki-43 ‘Oscar’ has been hit and
is heading earthward was derived from an unknown P-38 pilot who, as he
noted that his quarry had been hit, exuberantly shouted over his
microphone, “No Saki Tonight!!”
