US Marines Losses in Nicaragua 3 of 3

The last incident I have absolutely no info other than the following two airman appear on a Caterpillar list for 8th April 1931 in Nicaragua

They were

Private Theodore Conradi U. S. Marines,
Lt. Edward L. Pugh U. S. Marines,

Pugh was with Aircraft Squadrons, Second Brigade, Managua, Nicaragua at the time and I suspect they were flying a Vought O2U-1 Corsair or Curtis Falcon OC-2 which were both with the Brigade at the time

But again would like confirmation

Thanks Paul

Paul,

VO-7M to have been the squadron A7532 was assigned to, I read in Aeronautical Industry, Vol. 11, p. 7 (1930).

Shipped straight from the factory to Nicaragua.


Regards,

Leendert
