Situation: Ken was a Medal of Honor Winner. In Stan’s painting a mission on June 5, 1943 is depicted. During this mission Ken’s assignment was to cover the TBF being flown by USN Air Group Commander Weldon Hamilton. As Hamilton made his final bomb run, Walsh downed a Zero attacking his own wingman. Rejoining Hamilton’s TBF, the USMC ace quickly dispatched a “Pete” which was making an attack on the TBF.
