About the Tail Flash
After the 498th moved from McChord to Paine Field, they did get new tail art which consisted of a red, white and blue lightening bolt flash with a small Geiger Tiger above on the left side. You might recall this configuration is what they 84th had. That's because the 84th used the same flash but replaced the Geiger Tiger with their black panther when the 498th was inactivated and their planes turned over to the 84th.
