Bob, my dad was also at Moffet Field. I now have all of his personal and
military aviation records. I need to look at them and see when he was
there. He was an instructor. He had gotten his certificate through the
CPT program. I'll check and post.

My brothers and I were all Air Force brats. Dad (

or thereabouts. Graduated from Cadet training in October 1941. Lousy
timing. The war started about a month later. Of his class of 250 at Moffet
Field, only 26 survived the war.

All three of us eventually became pilots. I was the last, soloing two weeks
after Dad passed away. I never got to fly with him in the right seat. Sad.
