During World War II, these aircraft were last seen, pummeling Japanese targets in the Western Pacific. It was called Operation Hailstone, which was organized in February 1944. Even though US came out victorious, 20 aircraft were lost. Recently, a non-profit project has organized searches and it has found three of those lost aircraft. 1 was an Avenger torpedo bomber and 2 were SBD 5- Dauntless dive bombers.
