Pointer Dogs Squadron

Vought SBU dive bomber in the liveries of the section leaders of USS Saratoga's "Pointer Dogs" Scouting squadron. The squadron was renumbered from VS-2B to VS-3 in the great fleet reorganization of 1937, but they kept their white tails and stayed aboard the Saratoga. Right after the redesignation they traded in their SBUs for Curtiss SBC-3s.
