The aircraft code cannot be read, but the red chevron on the top wing indicates the first three-aircraft section of VS-6 and the colouring of the lower half of the cowling should indicate the leader's second wingman, 6-S-3. The blue tail surfaces indicate the USS Enterprise air wing. Photo by: Carl Mydans / Life
