Re: F4U-4 in action in Okinawa, 1945

I have a friend who is a retired GySgt/MGySgt(long story) who was on Okinawa. He was an Air Winger and here is one of the pictures he sent me of the flightline on Okinawa one night...note F4U's in background:

Here is a picture of his squadron in Kadena circa May 1945...he is standing 4th from left:
