Grumman F6F-5N Hellcat Night Fighter of VMF(N)-541 on the runway - Peleliu 1944 by TK622 Via Flickr: The Hellcat's night fighter variant can be identified by the radar pod mounted on the leading edge of the starboard wing. It is barely visible in the photo, being mostly covered by the tail. VMF(N)-541 was stationed at the Peleliu airfield between 24 September and 03 December 1944. In the background construction work by Navy Seabees can be seen. Three days after battle started the Navy Construction Battalions had the captured airfield in operational condition and began the work to expand it.
