This custom Gildan 5000 T-shirt features Glacier Girl, the WWII P-38 Lightning recovered from Greenland’s ice. The Lost Squadron design is made for warbird fans and military aviation history buffs, whether they’re headed to an air show, visiting an aviation museum, or looking for an everyday tee. Available in sizes S–5XL.
BUYER’S HIGHLIGHT:
The P-38’s twin-boom silhouette is easy for warbird fans to spot, and Glacier Girl’s story gives them something to talk about. It’s a gift for the aviation enthusiast who enjoys the stories behind restored aircraft as much as seeing them fly.
BRIEF HISTORY:
In July 1942, six P-38 Lightnings and two B-17 Flying Fortresses made emergency landings on Greenland’s ice during a wartime ferry flight. All crew members survived, and the abandoned aircraft became known as the Lost Squadron. In 1992, a recovery team brought the P-38F later named Glacier Girl out of the ice in pieces. After restoration, it flew again in October 2002.
