VP LogosLOGOs: Coast Guard VPB-6 Logo Thumbnail VP-6 Logo "...THE ANCIENT ORDER OF THE PTERODACTYL", more commonly referred to as Peter O'Dactly. the symbol of the organization which comprises current and former USCG aviators, NFO's, and aircrew members. Their symbol, and motto: Flying Since the World Was Flat, signifies that they have been around a long time. If you remember your early schooling, the pterodactyl had hollow legs and everyone knows that a drinker is best served by a hollow leg. How long have they been around? Take a look at a picture of the Wright Brothers first flight. One brother is on the on/in the craft while the other is seen at the end of the right wing as it lifts off from Kitty Hawk, NC. Well now, if'n there were only two brothers, who took the picture? Chief Electrician's Mate W. Daniels who retired from the USCG as Captain. The Wrights' credit the USCG's Life Saving Service crew at Kitty Hawk with greatly assisting in the early flight attempts. When was the first trans-Atlantic flight and who was the #1 pilot? The Navy's NC-4 flying boat in 1919 with LT(jg) Elmer Stone, USCG, on board as the first pilot. Although the ship was under the command of a Navy officer, the USCG led the way as first pilot..."
