Ya know I caught a hop on one of those and flew backwards in a plane with no windows. Very gold tooo! We left Frisco and went direct to Guam or Midway can't remember in Dress Blues and Pea Coats when they landed I thought I'd die it was so hot.
From there we went to PI and from there we went to VN via several supply ships. I remember that long trip very well.

O Almighty Lord God, who neither slumberest nor sleepest; Protect and assist, we beseech thee, all those who at home or abroad, by land, by sea, or in the air, are serving this country, that they, being armed with thy defence, may be preserved evermore in all perils; and being filled with wisdom and girded with strength, may do their duty to thy honour and glory; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
