The 1st Fighter Squadron" 413th Fighter Group was activated on

15 October 1944 at ArmyAir Base" Seyno1¥'Johnson Field, Goldsboro,

North Carolina. Lack of facilities and room with which effective

operational training was not possible necessitated moving of the

organization to Bluethenthal Field, Wilmington, North Carolina where

the Squadron arrived on 9 November1944. The Squadron has been under

direct jurisdiction of the 413th Fighter Group (SE)" whicl..'::l turn

comes under the 301st Fighter Uing. Lateral to the 1st FighGGrSquad­

ron within the 413th Ftr. Group are the 21st and 34th Fighter SquadrolSs.

The organization remained at Bluethenthal field from 9 November1944

until 7 April 1945. In that period we received eXtensive training

readying us for overseas service. It was a period that saw the outfit

''Iorking from fourteen to s:1xteen (14~16) hours a day. Along with the

ground school -- orientation in combat activities and how to cope with

them -- which required two to three (2-3) hours a day. Amongall this

feverish activity we absoebed as muchof the training as is possible

in such a short period of time and kept the planes in excellent flying

condition.

On orders of higher headquarters the Squadron departed Bluethenthal

Field on 7 April 1945 and arrived at Fort,lLawton" Seattle, -iiashington

on 12 April 1945 for further processing. iie enjoyed. the ;:-.;__days it

required tp cross the country viewing the South, Uid-Hest, the plains

and mountains. COll8idering the distance that had to be covered it was

carried out in comparative comfort. lIe had thirty-five (35) lOOn

assigned to a car which afforded plenty of leg room and comfortable

sleeping facilities, doubling the lOVierberths 'and single upper berths.

The troop kitchen propared excellent lOOalS,highly palata::1.c and, of

course, there were frequent stops aloI1Bthe way where we wc:'e given

the opportunity to get some fresh air and exercise our tired muscles.

At Fort Lawton the processing was expedited. All equipment was

checked for quality and quantity and all records cleared. Plus the

spiritual uplifting with several lectures completed our processing

adequately. On17 bopril 1945 tne .menof the organization, with helmets

marked in chalk corresponding to the numbers of the ship's directories,

embarked on the "USATKota Inten" for overseas duty. \lith the Trans­

port CommandOrchestra playing "One 0 'Clock Jumpllthe ship pulled from

the dock at 1800 hours that day. All Were topside watching Seattle's

skyline get smaller and smaller until it passed from view. The trip

went without incident, there were a few who did becomesoasick but

these cases lasted but a few days. Our first stop over the long

voyage was Hawaii. lie came into port the morning of Apr:"J_ 25th. It

and some of the Honolulu newspapers ,':cr9 brought aboard to give us some

fresh reading materi4l~

April and lcavil1£; the followil1£; day for Guam. It was on that carrier

that they assembled, maintained and complied with T.O. changes on forty­

nine (49) aircraft.

In the meantimeJ \~e of the ground echelon had a throe day stopover

at Honolulu. Since we were restricbed to the immediate vicinity of the,

ship, the Honolulu U.S.O. graciously consented to brin8 their troupe 'Of

native s:ir!Gers, lInlsicians and dancin8 girls down to the wharf to

across the Pacific. Considering the heat, crowded conditions and

abominable food that .was served, all .:t~()ardseemed to "take itll in

grand style.

After Pearl Harbor we had two more stops enroute. One at Eniwetok

where we arrived the 6th of bay and the other at Ulithi, .12th of my.

Neither stop was exciting or noteworthy, rather, the stops proved very

tryD1g as the ~c~thor was unbearable. At Ulithi the Engineering Gfficer

and cleven (11) enlisted men left the "leota Inten" to join the Air

Echelon at Tinian. Tinian is where ~e Air Echelon had CC.:8 after leav~

ing Guamthe 22nd of Aprli. "'-'

lk came in on the heels of the invasion forces arriving at Ie Shima

on 19th of May. It wasn't until 2100 hours of that day however that we

h~ all our gear tOGether and went ,over the side into an "L.S.M."

which took us to the beach and terra firma after 'thirty-one (31) days

on the sea.

Tho difficult job of unloadinG the equipment beGan the next day and

continued for the next five days. It was madedifficult because of the

constant rain, lack of transportation and frequent air raids. \'lhile we

were subjected to constant bombinGattacks, no large scale forco capablo

of doinG extensive damazoreached the island.

Page 6: f~iRST FI,GH fER S~'Ut1,DRON - 413th Fighter Group

Conditions were bad and cattinc wo~se; it continued to rain for the

next ten days; made our living area uEtenable~ We worked, slept and ate

in mud. Through it all, we set up our permament area, uncrated and

sorted the equipment and set up the various departments.

16th of June the first contingent of the Air 4helon arrived and

operational flying began two days later, June lath. This is discounting

of course, th e raid the Air Ec helon made on Jap-held Truk on May 21st in

which fifteen (15) of our aircraft participated.

In our war against Japan the pilots flew Combat Air PatJ'Gl, bombing,

strafing and escort missions totalling ~,037 sorties, 54 missions and

72 C.A.P.s., dostroying twelve (12) planes in the air, fivo (5) on the

ground, three (3) damagod and one (1) probable, along with the extensive

damage done the enemy airfiolds, shipping, manufacturing centers and

installations with its bombing and rocket attacks.

It should be noted also that our unit was the first to use Napalm

acainst the Japanese homeland and tho first to eo on the longest fiGhter

flight deep into Honshu.

August was a month that saw a unit such as ours change over from an

all-out war machine to a peaco time army o~anization. The organization

carried the w~r to the Japanese homeland in the first two weeks of AUGust

in the same fi~hting manner it had shown from its first mission some

two months pre:vious.

Tnere was no let-up in our efforts and a report of thv ( :,panese

surrender on the 12th of August caught us unawares and prov'-": an

emotional shock -- the report also proved to be unconfirmed. However,

the news we had been waitinG for did not deter us from our objective

and the pilots went on another mission the followinG ~ay with renewed

vigor and determination the make the succeeding announcement emphatic­

ally correct.

It i.::;<cfi:•.e cor.1be.trecord that th0 orGa.niza.tion posted in the two

months of operational flYing prior to the war'~ end with the official

announcementof the Jt~P0.l1(Js..;acceptance of the surrender terms on 15th

of iI.;~,-:u:Jt.Considering that in thE period this area experienced

unusually adverse weather which kept the planes ~rounded far days at a

time. TJl'.:.i':~~;t·, the tireless efforts of the pilots and the unstinted

efforts of the Ground crews in keepinc the planes f1yil1G our bit in the

war aGainst Nippon is felt to have been of major importi.L':;-':;in bringing

about the rapid conclusion of the war. This is, of course, in retro­

spect-that we are viewinG our work because at the time of our labors

no effort seemed to be too create .
