Historical dedication

The FM-2 Wildcat was an American carrier-based naval fighter used during World War II. It served mainly on US Navy escort carriers from 1943 to 1945 and became one of the key fighter aircraft used in the Pacific theater and during amphibious operations. Its role was to provide air cover and support for landing troops, especially during the battles of the Solomon Islands and the Battle of Leyte.
