Coral Sea (CV 43) - Naval Cruise Book

V2 Division Shoot 'em and catch 'em pretty much sums up the task of the green shirts, identifying our catapult and arresting gear technicians. This seemingly simple task is actually very complicated and very demanding both mentally and physically. Standing between the bow cats in the 'coral' with a roaring A-6 on one side and a thundering F-4 on the other takes more than just a notion: quick reflexes and keen alertness are both essential requirements. The men scurry around the big jets as they taxi into position, hooking up the bridle or the schuttle, then after a final check they scamper back to the safety coral. The catapult officer signals the pilot to rev up engines or cut in after burners, a final salute given his hand touches the deck and points the way. A man in the catwalk at a control console pushes a button and when the steam clears another bird is airborne as the next one taxis into position. , M, , X ,K 1 'Q .? Barnes, RL V f. 15233.
