Aircraft History Card for US Navy TBS BuNo 91512 Has been received and I'm attaching for anyone interested. Thanks again for all the responses and expertise.

My friend found the pilot's scrapbook with a 1950 Saturday Evening Post article on the Avenger sub hunter mission and pilots flying from the USS Mindoro. The pilot we are researching is seated on the far left in the briefing room.

Thanks mjfur. That's a great suggestion and resource. I appreciate your, and others, time and expertise.

Is there any way to track this aircraft by the number 91512. I'm assuming that is the identifying serial number or similar. i appreciate the insignia explanatio. Thank you, Bill

Thank you mjfur. Quite an insignia. Do you have any idea as to what it depicts? Respectfully, Bill

I doubt this magnified insignia from below the pilot is not much help due to poor image quality but posting just in case it jogs someone's memory. Thanks to all responders.

The envelope was mailed by the pilot - postmarked USS Gyatt. And his footlocker.

Thanks to all who have responded. Lots of good info. Duplication with a model kit is a terrific idea to honor a relative.

New member here with a plane ID request. A friend sent me this photo of his father-in-law piloting an aircraft. I request the name of plane and any additional information provided by airplane markings. Thank you for your assistance. Respectfully, BillZ
