The Beatbox wasnt invented in the Hood

But it was still called a Ghetto Blaster when they went after the Jews.

A Vought OS2U-3 Kingfisher is recovered by USS Baltimore (CA 68) after she had rescued Lieutenant JG George M. Blair
from Truk Lagoon, 18 February 1944. Plane's pilot is Lieutenant (Junior Grade) Denver F. Baxter. His radioman, ARMC Reuben
F. Hickman, is on the wing, preparing to attach the plane so it can be hoisted on board. Blair's F6F Hellcat, of Fighting
Squadron Nine from USS Essex (CV 9), had been shot down during the dawn fighter sweep over Truk.

Guess that fighter pilot gained a whole new appreciation for Kingfishers that day.

I am always amazed at those Kingfisher hook up scenes and the high wire act they demonstrate. Note the name of the ship on the one being recovered. And check out those insignia on the launch from the USS Detroit!

My high school physics teacher flew USN floatplanes before WWII. On one occasion, flying something older than a Kingfisher off the USS Texas, he and the guy in the rear seat switched places in flight. When they got back one of the deck crewmen noticed but the two pilots just ignored him.
