During the first attack by VS-6 Dauntless dive bombers on June 4, 1942 in the historic Battle of Midway, Lt (jg) "Dusty" Kleiss climbs away while inspecting the devastation inflicted by his bombs on the forward elevator of the Japanese aircraft carrier Kaga. His gunner, ARM3c John Snowden, skillfully manages to keep pursuing Zeros at bay. Only nine of the original 16 Scouting Squadron Six SBD's returned, and Kleiss landed on the USS Enterprise with only a few gallons of fuel remaining. Personally Autographed by pilot Capt. "Dusty" Kleiss PLANE JUNKIE - Dauntless Courage by David Gray (SBD Dauntless)

 

Note this is the only Dauntless print ever signed by Midway's most successful dive bomber (2 carrier hits, 1 cruiser hit).  We are down to the last few left in circulation.
