Where can I get info on ealry Curtis P-40D/Es at AFBs at Pearl Harbor ??

I think that you are confusing it with the Philippines squadrons as they received the new aircraft as they were seen to be at the tip of the spear, so to speak.  Many of the new aircraft would not have tail serial numbers as at the time it wasn't AAC/AAF practice as confirmed by photos of P-40E's going to Alaska in Jan. 1942. 

I appreciate everything. Using Mr. Baugher's website I tracked down one aircraft, Ser. # 5478 wrecked at Wheeler Field Jan 27 1942 when hit bump and struck another aircraft and of course the aircraft you mentioned, that wrecked less than two months after the attack on Pearl. It seems all I can get is final status like if the plane crashed,  was sold, or lend leased. It would appear that it is very possible there were E models delivered before or around the attack. Too bad I can't get delivery dates but this is a start, thank you very much. Keep the info coming I'll eat this up all day !!!
