Hey well tomorrow is Thanksgiving Day. A day we have set aside to give thanks for all our blessings, It has been call Turkey day as that has been chosen as the traditional dinner for Thanksgiving Day. I know some will prefer other chooses such as Duck or Goose, So I thought we should offer up some of each, all brought to you by Grumman! The TBF/TBM Avenger was nicknamed the Turkey due to it large sizes and huge wing. It first say combat at Midway in June of 1942, didn't far well, though it was a victim of the situation coming in as a torpedo bomber and the fighters already down low. Used as a level or glide bomber, but was still used as designed as a torpedo bomber.
Operated as the JRF by the US Navy and the OA-9 I'm offering you all the Goose.
The J2F Duck was used by the US Navy and Coast Guard in may roles from the mid 30 through the end of the war.
