I'm having difficulty wrapping my head around how what presumably is a Jug pilot was doing boots on the ground in Normandy.  I suppose he was acting as a FAC?

Yeah looks like D-Day plus 10 they started moving P-47s onto a beach-head landing strip.  I didn't realize they deployed them forward that soon.
