Summary

Description
English: The only U.S. Navy Korean fighter ace Lt. Guy Bordelon smiles at the name plate on "Annie-Mo", his Vought F4U-5N Corsair fighter in which he shot down five enemy aircraft during the Korean War. Bordelon was assigned to composite squadron VC-3 Blue Nemesis, which was deployed to Korea on the aircraft carrier USS Princeton (CVA-37) from 24 January to 21 September to Korea as part of Carrier Air Group 15 (CVG-15). His aircraft, a Vought F4U-5N Corsair (BuNo 124453, NP-21), was left at an airbase in Korea and Bordelon was flown back to the Princeton. An U.S. Air Force Reserve pilot later crashed the plane in an accident.
