Corsairs of the mountain
A half-dozen F4U-4 Corsairs of VF-873 (from NAS Oakland) flying in formation near Mt. Rainer, WA 1953. VF-873 hung up their Corsairs soon after this picture was taken and was stood back up in the 1960s flying A-4 Skyhawks before its last inactivation in 1968. NAS Oakland similarly got out of the military business and is now Oakland International Airport
