This page from a personal flight log book documents the November 1944 combat missions of a Marine Corps or Navy F4U-1D Corsair pilot. Entries in red ink record repeated bombing and strafing strikes against Japanese garrisons at Jaluit, Wotje, and Nauru — bypassed island strongholds in the Marshall Islands subjected to continuous 'neutralization' air raids after the main U.S. advance moved westward. Such logbooks provide an intimate, day-by-day record of a combat aviator's wartime service, preserved here as part of the Pat McAleer collection. Project: 218060
