One HELLUVA creative kid, or parent. Either way, that's cool.

My Dad flew Corsairs (ground based) in the Caroline Islands and Wildcats (carrier based) from the USS Savo Island, CVE 78, during WWII. His carrier squadron VC-27, was the highest scoring squadron for all escort carriers during the war claiming 62 Japanese planes shot down in 1944-45. Below is a picture of my dad's Corsair clock that he 'liberated' from one of his rides as well as a piece of the flight deck from the USS Savo Island. Dad was a plank holder for the 1000th catapult. The other picture is the bridge of the Savo Island showing VC-27's victories.

Dad died last October at 93 - the day after coming home from his honor flight to Washington DC. I miss him.

John,
My sincere condolences on the loss of your father.
I'm happy he got to go on his honor flight.
Sounds like he was a man that should be missed.
