Yup! It was part of my father's WWII training history starting in
February 1943 with the PT-17 at Souther Field, GA, then after 60 hours
(21:15 solo) it was on to Courtland AAF, AL and 84 hours (49 solo) in
BT-13A.
Next was Craig Field AAF and an AT-6 graduating in 43-G.

Advanced was at Eglin AAF in AT-6 & P-40 and Page Field, FL in P-47D.
By September 1943 he was at Dobodura, Papua New Guinea flying P-47Ds in
combat.
