The 23rd is a fictitious fighter group that served in World War 2 from my Story Flying For Freedom. The group is led by Squad Commander Ross Manuel and was one of the best fighter groups for taking out German and Japanese artillery.
The fighter group flew Chance Vought Corsair Fighter bombers throughout the war. This type of aircraft was one of the most powerful carrier based and land based aircraft ever to be in service with the US Armed Forces during World War 2, and yet little is known about the aircraft.
