Now I need to beg information of WW2 service of commanders and the XOs of the Valley Forge squadrons
.
VF-51 xo LCdr Mueller. No initials.
VF-92 LCdr Herbert Thayer Fichman , xo LCdr Leroy Freeman Berkebile. Both served in WW2, Fichman might have been with VF-51 on USS San Jacinto.
VF-53 LCdr Lawrence B Green, xo LCdr Charles Edward Mulligan. No details.
VF-54 LCdr Henry “Hank” Suerstedt xo LCdr Robt.M McConnell. Suerstedt definitely served as an aviator in WW2, not sure about McConnell.
Lastly LCdr William Morris Meredith, the poet.
A tall order but the brains on this forum always come through.
As always this is my pursuit of the career of my fellow Scot, George C. Duncan (c.o.VF-51)
