USS PRINCETON (CV-37) 1948


DVD Content
This DVD contains the actual, uncut footage that was filmed by USS Princeton in 1948.
Filmed with a 16mm camera, so very good color despite the age.
Excellent flight operations. Including Bearcats, Avengers, and Corsairs.
Great air show footage.
A very good sequence of a bearcat that crashes (flips over its nose upside down), and the rescue of the pilot and salvage efforts of the airplane.
Good footage of the ship filmed by a liberty launch.
The last 2-3 minutes are of either a Christmas or Thanksgiving feast for officers and VIP's. Don't know any of the people, but the food looks fantastic.
About 10 minutes running time.

  • Produced by GRS Videos (TM). GRS Videos is dedicated to the preservation of Naval Aviation film footage. This passion began when the son of a recently deceased Korean War veteran told me how he had thrown away all of those "old 8mm films of planes flying off of a ship". Yes, I cried. Our heritage MUST be preserved. As a veteran of Naval Aviation, I have a strong interest in ensuring that our stories are not forgotten. If you have footage (16mm, 8mm, VHS, Super 8, Beta, or Digital) contact me at PLAT_Collector@verizon.net. I will also gladly trade any footage I have for new footage (any format). So, if I have Naval Aviation footage you want, and you have something I do not have, contact me and I am confident we can work something out. I am always looking for new PLAT mishaps and home movies/video of carrier operations and life on carriers. All proceeds go into obtaining and preserving more Naval Aviation footage. Gary R. Schreffler served on USS Midway (with HS-12) from 1984-1991.
