Hello Marvin,
Sorry it took me so long to get back to you. I don't check my mail on this site very often. All is well here, thanks for asking. Oro Valley, I remember it well. I was born and raised in Tucson. When I was growing up there, Oro valley was just a spot one drove thru on the way to or from Phoenix. Big changes there now. eh?
Be safe going back and forth,
Richard
Hello Marvin,
Sorry to say that I don't know your nephew, Mike. We're separated by the width of the Schenectady Airport and don't get to interact much.
The Vigi that we have at the museum is Bu No 156621. We obtained it from the USS Intrepid Sea, Air and Space Museum in NYCity. It was then in the paint scheme of Heavy 3. I had it re-done in the scheme of Heavy 5 from the USS Ranger. Here's a photo of the aircraft in its Heavy 5 colors. Hope you approve.
Thanks for contacting me...hope to see you sometime.

Marvin,
You are correct in that I reside in Ohio not far from Jim Harm.
We got a little early Christmas snow with cold temperatures.
I remember you in "Happy Heavy 5".
Best Wishes.
Marshall
Marvin,
The list is in Excel and I will be glad to email it to you, or anyone that is interested. All input would be appreciated.
My email is: mb.walker@hotmail.com
I do remember you. Maybe we will see you at the next reunion. In addition to the RVAH renunions there will also be one for NAS Sanford, which I think has a separate website.
Keep in touch.
John.
