Comments: Served during Fall 1954 to Summer 1957 as ATAN..AT2 USN. Flew all the VR 21 aircraft over Pacific routes. Incidents of high time engine failures, fuel exhaustion, lost navigators, Philipine storms, remote islands, "N" tests, transportation of USO troops, lots of dead wieght cargo, liberty in Shigam-atusgi, Cavite City, Agana Guam, all are old fond memories. I served with WW2 vets and newbies from AT A school. Some of which still function today... A good Squadron, professional, safe and on time.. end
