My hero father enlisted in the Navy start of WWII. He would become a search and rescue PBY Catalina Pilot, his plane and crew were stationed on Cuba of all places. My fathers crew saved many sailors a drift on the ocean clinging to what ever they could find when their ship was sunk or plane crashed. While stationed on Cuda my father had to the opportunity to test fly nearly every plane in the American inventory at that time, thats another story.
SeaBees are Exceptional! The things they did during the war, it was like magic. You and your men get to a river, but the bridges are blown! What to do? Don't worry, the SeaBees will create a new bridge, and have it done in no time.
Nice to see the PBY-3 it was not amphibian but a true floatplane the PBY-5a was an amphibian denoted by the "a" at the end. What a great film probably filmed in early 43.
In the mid 60's there was a red Catalina in Arizona being used as a slurry bomber for the US Forest service. I only saw it for one summer season. An awesome sight for sure. It would land on one of the lakes, pick up a load of water and continue on. I was born during WWII.
As a Navy junior, out in the Philippines at the ages of 11-13, I got to fly in the big Martin P-5M's - lots of hours! Only a short hop to Subic in a cat, tho. I do wish Periscope would re-locate their logo to the bottom of the screen.
Here's the issue: Tens of thousands of films similar to this one have been lost forever -- destroyed -- and many others are at risk. Our company preserves these precious bits of history one film at a time. How do we afford to do that? By selling them as stock footage to documentary filmmakers and broadcasters. If we did not have a counter, we could not afford to post films like these online, and no films would be preserved. It's that simple. So we ask you to bear with the watermark and timecodes. In the past we tried many different systems including placing our timer at the bottom corner of our videos. What happened? Unscrupulous RUclips users downloaded our vids, blew them up so the timer was not visible, and re-posted them as their own content! We had to use content control to have the videos removed and shut down these channels. It's hard enough work preserving these films and posting them, without having to spend precious time dealing with policing thievery -- and not what we devoted ourselves to do.

My Father did two Missions as a U.S. Navy Beach Jumper on the Black Cats,and two Technical Air Intelligence Branch Missions in a Black Widow. The Black Cats had T.V. and Radio Guided Ordanance by 1945. Radar too.

No, but good question. Listeners around the Pacific region could easily hear broadcasts of the two most powerful stations, JOAK-1 on 590 AM and JOAK-2 on 870 AM both broadcasting from modern studios in the heart of the bustling capital city of Tokyo. Source: www.radioheritage.net/story176.asp

You REALLY need to move your count caption. It obstructs the captions, and should be closer to the bottom where it would be less irritating. Can easily be done by varying you aspect ratios and placing the count caption OUTSIDE of the film. Simple really, but it takes a non-American to think of it. But then, we are much more intelligent.
Today is 6th July 2021 while I'm writing this comment the world most modren armies of USA and NATO are running out of Afghanistan living behind their boots and trousers after the humiliating defeat in Afghanistan by small militia force of Talibans,this defeat is bigger than vitamins defeat. It is true that Afghanistan is graveyard of empires.

The support teams really did a fantastic job. Nothing would be flying or sinking without them. Well done men!
Those crews had balls of steel!
The greatest generation! You're damn right!
Long live the BLACK CAT crews, their contributions in WWII will never be forgotten..ever...RIP...boys..
As a Navy veteran, I'm ashamed to admit I didn't know about the Black Cat.
Fair Winds and Following Seas, Black Cat crews and BZ on a job well done!
My dad was a pilot and Patrol Plane Commander flying Black Cats in the Solomon Islands 1943. His crew likes him because he brought them back alive.
JOUR DAD SOUNDS LIKE HE GOT LOTS OF COURSE
My dad flew the same plane in the Solomons at the same time. I wonder if they knew each other.
Lol my name is solomon

Man the plane on Cod WAW seemed like it was way ahead of its time
Magnificent! They were indeed the greatest generation.
Another example of U.S. NAVY capabilities. The Navy does it all, and does it ALL AT ONCE ! U.S. NAVY veteran. PO3 '73>'77 👍😉🇺🇸
The SeaBee’s were an integral part of the war and did hard work in unimaginable conditions!
SeaBees are Exceptional! The things they did during the war, it was like magic. You and your men get to a river, but the bridges are blown! What to do? Don't worry, the SeaBees will create a new bridge, and have it done in no time.
Some of those Cats had British insignia on the wings. Probably New Zealand or Australian crewed.
Nice to see the PBY-3 it was not amphibian but a true floatplane the PBY-5a was an amphibian denoted by the "a" at the end. What a great film probably filmed in early 43.
My father's CB outfit built their bases. E. R. Henry was a 2nd class P.O. 84 th. CB Co. A.
My Uncle Marcel Belanger was a G*Damned U.S. Navy Seabee there.
My dad talked about the SeaBees sometimes welcoming the Marines, having got there first!😁
My father flew in the Catalina after the war and told me they always put the new guy in the gun blister so he could watch the wings flap .
In the mid 60's there was a red Catalina in Arizona being used as a slurry bomber for the US Forest service. I only saw it for one summer season. An awesome sight for sure. It would land on one of the lakes, pick up a load of water and continue on. I was born during WWII.
My gosh this was...Excellent...Thanks you so very much....!
when i see rows and rows of clouds, it always reminded me of WWII at sea. I called them war clouds. I don't see them often.
My favorite part is 8:19. Thanks for sharing.
Take off at 85 knotts , cruise speed 85 knotts, and landing speed 85 knotts.
Stalls at 85 Knots as well!!
My father saw them fly backwards up at Dutch Harbor. Terrible weather!
Kind of like a J3 - takeoff, fly & land at 45. Could fly backwards in a good headwind - LOL
As a Navy junior, out in the Philippines at the ages of 11-13, I got to fly in the big Martin P-5M's - lots of hours! Only a short hop to Subic in a cat, tho.

Rest in peace Elbert Bates, Black Cat crewman, of Greenlee County Arizona.
As I like Consolidated Catalinas,thanks for the good show.
It is an early Catalina. Just the boat not that landing gear so no amphibian. Haven’t seen it before.
wow..great story shout out from manila philipines..😊😊 tnx. godbless u.
The first gunship of US. And thank you CoD: WaW.
Had to put the volume at 100% on my TV to barely hear it. Can't believe they couldn't fix the audio!
I have audio up 100% - I think audio record level was set too low when it was digitized.
My father in law was a gunner on a black cat.
It is too bad that most WWll films have such low audio. Love to watch, but can' t hear a thing.
My uncle Bill was a pilot his call sign was Wild Bill he also carry a 45 too
WHY does the timer "BOX" have to be there?
I'll start watching, and the box annoys me so much, I'll stop watching.

Is that Claude Akins (Sheriff Lobo) 1:10:30:07? He was in the Army Signal Corps in the Pacific during WWII.
lovely relics.
Holy smokes!!! Never heard of the Black cats!!!
Good video but the countdown label in the middle ruined it!
Presented by a commercial company acts as a watermark. If you want a clean copy it's for sale. That's how they make a living.
So sorry for Nippon sailer man. Remember Pearl Harbor.
love this but volume so low i'm leaning into my lap top!
Get headphones; it's the only way.
Call of duty world at war brought me here
They should have included this bonus feature for “COD WAW”.
The producer sure had to scrounge from among a lot of unrelated sources to get some halfway representative battle footage.
I don't know about the rest of you but I can't hardly hear the video.
Audio record level set too low when it was digitized....maybe they will catch it and fix it...
Get that damned timer box off my screen. These guys are heroes. You guys are $%^*(
