My dad, Ens. Clayton Joseph Egli, flew with Mr. Nooy on the Belleau Wood (Fighter Squadron 31 - VF-31). Dad passed away on June 2, 2005 and I was searching for more information about his squadron, etc. I have Dad's "Distinguished Flying Cross" and "Air Medal" along with some pictures of him in his F6F Hellcat. I would be willing to share some of the info and I'd like to find additional information, photos, etc. pertaining to the squadron.

Doing some searching on Ens. Charles Mantel, who is listed on your page. His hometown of Northbridge Mass. is in the early stages of dedicating a memorial in his honor this year.

This website is really well done. My grandfather was Adolf "Al" Mencin and served as executive officer of his fighter squadron on the Cabot. I am really impressed by the amount of care and attention to detail that was spent creating this resource. While most other websites only offer the most rudimentary information, this site has tried to create a record that is not only accurate, but interesting and alive. I had the pleasure of knowing my grandfather well before he passed, and I think he would have enjoyed this website a great deal.
