This specific aircraft saw combat service in the Pacific Theater, in part, with the famed VMF-214 \

The airplane was used in basic, or primary, training of new pilots.  The photo shows the full airplane from the right front quarter view.  One can see the silhouette of the pilot's head in the cockpit.  The engine is not running.  The markings on the lower wing can be seen and show US Army.
