I believe the pilot was George Duncan, USNA '39. George went on to command
RANGER during the early 1960s.

VPN- As you probably know, when Charleton Heston has a ramp strike in
his
SBD, in the movie "Midway," it was really an F9F. I''ve heard the
pilot survived that, but I'm sure it was "interesting." BRBR

I met his daughter, the guy that hit the ramp, not Mr Heston.
