"...HULL, AMR2 Walter G. Jr...ARM2 Walter G. Hull, Jr. joined the Navy in March 1942 and became an aviation radioman. By chance, he was assigned to VS-47 where he joined his brother, ARM1 Warren E. Hull for 10 months of coastal patrol flying out of NAS Alameda, California and Crescent City, CA. When it came time to rotate out of VS-47 to a combat squadron, Walter requested and was transferred to VB-150, which was being formed in late 1943. Warren was also transferred to VB-150 and they remained together in VB-150 (and after December 1944, VPB-150) through work-ups, deployment to the Central Pacific, 55 combat missions against the Empire of Japan, and the squadron’s decommissioning in July 1945. During the deployment, Walter was part of Crew 12. On one mission, his plane was hit by anti-aircraft. Upon arriving home and after a month’s leave, training began anew. VPB-150 was reconstituted and shortly thereafter disbanded. My uncle, now certified as Combat Aircrewman, with the insignia to prove it, was transferred to VPB-198. He was being trained in the new PV-2 Harpoon for the invasion of Japan in the fall of 1945. Thankfully, the war ended in August. Walter was discharged in December 1945 at the age of 22. His involvement in the war ended in 1947 when he received official citations awarding him several Air Medals and and the Distinguished Flying Cross for his actions when his plane was hit by enemy fire. He went on to have a successful career, marriage and five children. He was humbly proud of his service in VPB-150 and the small part he played in winning the war. Walter died at the age of 68 in 1992..."

"...HULL, AMR1 Warren E...I am currently researching information so that I can record for our family the experiences of my father, ARM1 Warren E. Hull during WWII. My father started out in VP-63, but was transferred to VS-47 in the latter part of 1942 after missing some training. This occurred because he had helped crew a flight of PBYs to Hawaii and it took so long to get back to NAS Alameda, California by ship that a training gap occurred. By chance his brother ARM2 Walter G. Hull, Jr., was also assigned to VS-47 and for the next 10 months they flew OS2-U coastal patrols out of NAS Alameda, California and Crescent City, CA. When it came time to rotate out of VS-47 to a combat squadron, my father requested and was transferred to VB-150, which was being formed in late 1943. His brother joined him and they remained together in VB-150 (and after December 1944, VPB-150) through work-ups, deployment to the Central Pacific, 55 combat missions against the Empire of Japan, and the squadron’s decommissioning in July 1945. VPB-150 flew in the PV-1 Ventura. VPB-150 was known as the ‘Devilfish P-Viators’ and had a devilfish or octopus as the squadron’s logo. The green devilfish was also painted around each aircraft’s dorsal twin .50 cal Martin turret, making that squadron’s logo easily recognizable and distinctive. The name ‘Ventura’ meant Lucky Star and out of the more than thirty U.S. Navy PV squadrons during the war, VPB-150, for a variety of reasons, including luck, was probably the luckiest star of all these squadrons with respect to training and combat losses. Over 240 PV-1 Venturas were lost in training accidents or combat. Most squadrons lost aircraft and aircrew in training accidents before ever getting to combat zones. The Ventura was a tough, fast, high performance aircraft, but it had high wing loading (later corrected in the PV-2 Harpoon) and could be difficult to fly, particularly when taking off with a full load. In addition, most patrols and strike flights required round trips of 900 miles or more over the vast Pacific. If something went wrong, there was little or no help. VPB-150’s only aircraft loss took place on Tinian in 1944, when several Japanese came out of the sugar cane fields and took over a parked, unmanned plane on the tarmac, which was eventually blown up by the Japanese when the Marines arrived on scene. The squadron lost one person in combat, navigator AOM2 Kenneth Christie, killed by anti-aircraft fire in a bombing run on Jaluit in the Marshalls, in July 1944. My father left many photographs of the squadron’s time on Tarawa and Tinian. Life was rudimentary—fly, rest, maintain aircraft, plan, fly, rest…. The squadron had first operated out of Tarawa for a short time and as soon as the Marianas were secured, they moved to North Field Tinian, living in tents and mud when it rained. In August, VB-150 relocated to West Field Tinian to make way for the Army’s rapidly arriving B-29s and their crews. The Seabees had just finished this airstrip and its relatively luxurious and dry Quonset huts, far better accommodations than they had lived in at North Field. My father’s plane came under ground fire during its inaugural landing on Tinian and later had it’s landing gear collapse during a landing. I am sure there were similar ‘minor’ issues in the squadron, but when VB-150 headed home in March 1945, it was with everyone who had left Alameda a year earlier, except for Petty Officer Christie. My father’s pilot during his VB-150 time was Lieutenant Robert Swan. Although unknown to his crew, LT Swan had been the navigator on the PBY in June 1942 that first spotted the Japanese fleet at the Battle of Midway.Upon arriving home and after a month’s leave, training began anew. VB-150 was reconstituted and shortly thereafter disbanded. My father, now a certified Combat Aircrewman, with the insignia to prove it, was transferred to VPB-198. He was being trained in the new PV-2 Harpoon for the invasion of Japan in the fall of 1945. Thankfully, the war ended in August. My father was mustered out at Camp Shoemaker (Dublin, CA) in October at age 24. His involvement in the war ended in 1947 when he received official citations awarding him several Air Medals. He went on to have a successful career, marriage and four children. He was quietly proud of having served in WWII and the highlight of that service was his time in VB-150. My father died this past August (2012) at the age of 91..."

Assigned first to the Engine Build Up Shop (EBU), then to the AE shop, and finally to a "Pre-Flight/Block-Out Crew" where I worked until I was transferred to VR-3 while awaiting orders to AE "B" School after re-enlisting. Made AE1 right after I got to "B" School, and then on to HU-2/HC-2 at NAS Lakehurst, New Jersey. Selected for the Integration Program (Seaman to Admiral Program) in 1965, went to OCS in Newport, RI, and then to Naval Flight Officer Training at NAS Pensacola, Florida, NAS Glynco, Georgia, and finally to VAH-123, the A-3 RAG at NAS Whidbey Island, Washington. VQ-2 was my first assignment as an officer, and I flew EA-3Bs and EC-121s as a Navigator. Leaving NS Rota, Spain as an LT, I next went to NAS Pensacola, Florida for three years of Instructor duty, and then to VAQ-33 in NAS Norfolk, Virginia where I flew ERA-3Bs, EA-4Fs, and EF-4s, and left the Squadron as a LCDR.

In 1987 I was ordered to the Naval War College in Newport, RI where I earned two Master's Degrees; one in Strategic Studies and International Affairs from the War College and another in Personnel Management from Salve Regina University in Newport.

HUNT, Charles S. "Chuck" dpms223@aol.com "...I served in VP-9 from 1977 to 1979, then crossed the hanger to VP-40. I stayed in the "Lagging Handa" (or, as we called it, the slow motorcycles) until 1984, when I lost my mind and put in for shore duty, whereupon I got sentenced to a training squadron in Beeville, Tx. I'm sure some of you out there know what I mean. I was enroute from NAS Adak, Alaska back to NAS Moffett Field, California when we heard the initial Mayday from PD4, having flown that particular airframe just a couple days previously, as I was a "second mech" at the time, and went on to FE school. Flew out of NAS Adak, Alaska, NAS Misawa, Japan, NAS Cubi Point, Philippines, Guam, NSF Diego Garcia (aaarrrgghhhh) and took part in the "great Omani British E-club recon" while broke down in Oman with a #3 reduction gearbox failure. Also out of NAS Keflavik, Iceland, NAF Lajes, Azores, Portugal, and Kinloss, Scotland. After a few incidents I decided a safer profession was in order (new kids and one on the way), so I am now a police officer with 14 years on the streets of San Antonio, TX. Jody Griswold, if you are out there, you still owe me for that night in Bodo, Norway. Any Shipmates that can still think, drop me a line and we'll see what comes up. Fair winds and all that....Remember, there were THREE mirrors in the P-3C, the third one was in the TACCO's purse..." [15JUN2001]
