Description: Built 1/48 Scale Model Airplane. World War 2 U.S. Navy FM-2 Wildcat Ens JD McGraw, pilot, VC-10, USS Gambier Bay. October 1944 Ens McGraw would finish the war as an ace with five kills. The carrier he flew from during this period, the USS Gambier Bay, was sunk during the battle of Leyte Gulf. It is the only U.S. carrier to be sunk by surface fire, which was primarily from the IJN Yamato. The sacrifice that Gambier Bay as well as the other Escort Carriers made, would save the ships loaded with personnel that were to land on the Philippines as part of the campaign to retake those islands from Japan. #
