This page from a Marine Corps pilot's personal flight log book documents a month of intensive Corsair fighter training in September 1945, just weeks after Japan's surrender. Flying FG-1D, FG-1A, F4U-1, and F3A-1 Corsairs with squadron VMF-914, the aviator logged night dive tactics, rocket and bombing runs, gunnery, and overwater navigation exercises. By October 1945 he had accumulated 853 total flight hours, reflecting the sustained readiness training Marine aviators continued even as the war came to a close. Project: 218060
