The 38th FS 55th FG is an Aces High II squadron, it is named after the 55th FG 38th FS squadron that was active during WWII. Established in late 1942 as a P-38 Lightning fighter squadron, the 55th trained under Second Air Force in the pacific northwest, was later deployed to the European Theater of Operations (ETO), and assigned to VIII Fighter Command in England in late 1943. The squadron's mission was to provide long range fighter escort for B-17 Flying Fortress and B-24 Liberator heavy bombers on strategic bombing missions over Occupied Europe and Nazi Germany. In April 1944 the 55th received P-51D Mustang fighter aircrafts and continued its primary task of escorting B-17 and B-24 bombers that attacked such targets as industries and marshalling yards in Germany, along with airfields and V-weapon sites in France.
