Tom Blackburn was the U.S. Navy’s top-scoring Corsair “ace” with 11 “kills” to his credit. A born leader, he came from a family of Naval officers. His most famous command was VF-17 “The Jolly Rogers”. He led the squadron from January 1943 until May 1944. During this time they shot down 154 Japanese aircraft, sank 5 transport ships and produced 12 other F4U “aces”. - See more at: http://www.kingandcountry.com/blackburn-p-10304.html#sthash.2lB71XlR.dpuf
