He wrote a memoir including his WW2 experience along with his later career up to flying F-4s in Vietnam (iirc). It's an easy, short read and only $2 on Kindle if you're interested: https://www.amazon.com/My-Wars-Richard-Bushong/dp/0615198325
Edit: I scrolled down to a particularly good and informative "review" that's more some notes that someone took down while listening to Richard speak. I guess one of his seven planes actually survived the war, but that's still not a great record. https://www.amazon.com/gp/customer-reviews/R2D28O5NJRE4TN/ref=cm_cr_dp_d_rvw_ttl?ie=UTF8&ASIN=0615198325
Thank you my friend, have just added that to my Amazon basket and will look forward to reading it
