On the night of 14 August 1945, P-61B "Lady in the Dark" of the 548th Night Fight Squadron, was unofficially credited with the last Allied air victory before VJ Day. On that night, Major Lee Kendall was flying "Lady in the Dark" on patrol. An unknown aircraft was acquired on radar, and “Lady In The Dark” gave chase. Realizing they had been spotted, the pilot of the unknown aircraft attempted countermeasures and evasive manoeuvres but to no avail. As the Black Widow closed in, the panicked pilot inadvertently flew his aircraft into the ground.
