This interview features AD2 Howard Scoggins, who served as an Aviation Machinist's Mate in VP-5 from 1960 to 1963. He provides a detailed perspective on the operational environment during the search for LA-9 and the personal impact of the loss.
Howard recalls the immediate aftermath of the aircraft's disappearance, describing the intensity of the mission as his crew "flew search patterns for ten days" (1:15). He reflects on the challenging conditions they faced, noting that the search was conducted in "some of the most difficult weather I had ever seen" (1:42).
He shares his thoughts on the crew members left behind, expressing a sense of duty toward his former shipmates: "We were all brothers out there, and you don't just leave a brother behind" (2:58).
