SeaBees B-29U.S. Naval Construction Battalions were attached to, enabled and supported military operations of every branch of the United States Armed Forces in WWII. The 6 th Naval Construction Brigade's relationship with the Army Air Corps at Tinian was especially close.
Not long after the arrival of the B-29's on Tinian , a special comradeship developed between SeaBees and Airmen. Many SeaBee Battalions would "adopt" an aircraft by officially painting their logo and name on the B-29's nose. The quality of life for the crew of the plane improved considerably because the SeaBees provided the crew of "their" SuperFortress with better Quonset huts, washing machines, better mattresses, ice cream and many other comforts of life. The SeaBees in return were personally represented in the B-29 raids on the Japanese homeland.
