Definitely the least-known “Reggie’s Reply,” the P-51B Godfrey had for around 10 days after Gentile went back to the US before he got sent back to join Don on the Grand Tour.
Nice work, good markings choice.

Thanks for the information Tom.
I could only find one reference picture on the web which shows crash landing of Reggie s Reply
