Valley Forge (CV 45) - Naval Cruise Book

Page 24 text:

LT PARSLEY and ENS BROCK, our two windmill pilots, with their crew, have one of the most important and busiest jobs aboard. Unnoticed and unheralded, unless their use is suddenly needed to pull some hapless pilot or man overboard from the water, they are forever hovering by as planes take off and land, like a mother hen watching over her chicks. Most of the work, however, is routine, delivering guard mail at sea to other ships, taking photographs and trans- ferring personnel and material to and from the VALLEY FORGE. , f . - mffff-X?'r - s im s 4 K d A aa f -W I X.
