Commander, Carrier Strike Group (CSG) 4
The rear-seat gunner of an SBD dive bomber could have a single, or in this case, two .30 caliber machine guns (later in the war) to defend his aircraft and others in his formation. Note the single Japanese kill flag below him. Coordination and dependability were the hallmarks of these two-man crews.
