Hell Raising Harriers Part II is to be released by Flying Leathernecks in 1/48 scale, including AV-8B II Plus 165357 flown by then Maj Grunke
"A Cherry Point pilot was named the Marine Corps' Aviator of the Year, in recognition for a daring March 2011 rescue in Libya. Maj. Eric Grunke, a Harrier pilot with the 26th Marine Expeditionary Unit, won the annual award given to one member of the Corps. Grunke was the first member of a rescue team who reached a downed Air Force F-15 pilot.
Defense officials said the F-15 crashed on March 21, 2011 because of mechanical failure. The fighter jet went down on the third day of the U.S. and NATO strikes against Libyan dictator Muammar Qaddafi, an international operation known as Operation Odyssey Dawn."
