Iz my Pop, Lt. Hank Matson, standing on tha wingroot of his areoplane a-watching tha Navy clear off some F4Fs sos his Wing Commander could attempt, succesfully a carrier take off to land at Fighter 2. From tha Geep carrier U.S.S. Nassau... I think Dec 1942....when did they grad Jack, June 42? And they had already been thru tha Hebrides...right Jack?

I have a picture of three of these hotshot pilots in Walt Disney's Office, while waiting for tha Pelican Mascotte to be drawn and colored...whilst on their way to Pearl in August IIRC.
