Hey Pinch! I think you'll find this interesting. Old school carrier flight ops. USS ANTIETAM, off Korea, 1951. My dad took these pictures as a member of Antietam's Marine detachment. I could use a little help with aircraft ID, so if you know what some of these primitive beasts are, leave some comments. Or if you know any fellow aviators who might know.
Enjoy! Click to enlarge.

#2 looks like an F9F. Are #1 and #5 those too? #3 looks like an F4U Corsair. You could probably look up what exactly the Antietam had on board at the time.

Hello Karl, old friends/shipmates -
I joined Intrepid in Norfolk, Jan. 1959, as PIO. Karl Bock, Sr. was my roomie in the 02 bunkroom when we sailed for the Med on 2-13.
I'd love to hear from shipmates.
