Oral History Interview with George Head, November 7, 2014

The National Museum of the Pacific War presents an oral interview with George Head. Head volunteered to join the Navy in February, 1942. Since he already had his pilot’s license, he qualified for flight training. He earned his wings and a commission in October, 1942. He went to Kaneohe and was assigned to VP-13. He relates anecdotes about flying wounded Marines from Tarawa to hospital as well as General Holland Smith and his staff. He also bombed places like Wake Island and targets in the Marshalls. Later in 1944, they were stationed at Saipan and flew patrols. In April, 1945, VP-13 moved to Kerama Retto and flew patrols over the Sea of Japan. He returned to the US in August, 1945.
