Comanche is correct (Forrest call sign). Fwiw in the Veterans History Project recording, he said his callsign was KingFish (https://memory.loc.gov/diglib/vhp/bib/loc.natlib.afc2001001.90815) |

In non-combat squadrons a pilot usually could select a call sign he liked and the guidelines were simple. It should have two syllables, easily understood on the radio and no more than two words.
Interesting because of the entire 166 words in the poem 144 of them are single syllable, and 22 are two syllable. That's it.
