IIRC, the Corsair was about to get scrubbed until that enterprising Brit aviator figured out how to snake it onto a carrier deck - talk about an unsung hero!

Since the US Navy would not qualify the F4U for Carrier Ops the Marines got their hands on a first class fighter!!!

Pappy Boyington and Bob Hanson among others were very happy:-)
