Since I have been trying to find information about my great uncle (also my godfather) recently, this looked like a pretty good place, especially considering the other posts about enlisted Marine Corps pilots. He was a one of the few USMC enlisted pilots that lasted beyond the 50s, and it appears that some people who post here actually knew some of those guys. Because he died in 1971, there is nothong to be found about him on the internet that I have seen. Anyway, his name was Harry Neudorffer, and I would love to know if anyone who posts here knew him, knew of him, of knows where I might find some more information. Thanks.

Have you contacted the History Branch at Quantico? This might be a good source for you....

Not yet, and my wife even works there (FBI Crime Lab). I should do that I guess. I was just pleased to see some of the posts here on the issue and thought it would be cool if a member actually knew him or of him.

Unless comcast is messed up again, here is a picture of him with what I am guessing is a North American SNJ trainer. It's not a great picture, but I scanned it from the 60+ year-old original.

Hi,
Your uncle is listed on this site.

Thank you very much. That's the first time I have seen his name on a list like that. My mother will be happy, and it's a good start to finding more. I really appreciate your help.

Glad I was able to be of some help.

I got a few more pictures of my uncle and thought the people here might appreciate them.

Hello,
Just want to thank you for the pictures.
