'War is a game that is played with a smile. If you can't smile, grin. If you can't grin, keep out of the way till you can.'-Winston Churchill (1874-1965) |

Magin put their backs and muscles into cranking the start of a Curtiss SBC Helldiver. The obsolete biplane dive bombers were used as trainers at Naval Air Station Corpus Christi, Texas.
