Summary

Description U.S. Navy Curtiss SB2C-5 Helldiver dive bombers of bombing squadron VB-89 are lined up for launch on the flight deck of the aircraft carrier USS Antietam (CV-36), 1945. Joining the Pacific Fleet too late for service in the Second World War, the carrier operated in the Far East during the period September 1945-August 1946. Vought F4U Corsairs of fighter squadron VF-89 are spotted on the starboard side of the flight deck while the Helldivers launch from the port side. Note the geometric air group identification symbol on Antietam´s aircraft (white stripes), officially in use from January to July 1945. A Gearing-class destroyer wearing measure 22 camouflage and carrying an SP radar aft is visible in the background. It is probably USS Highbee (DD-806), which accompanied Antietam to the Pacific.
