Here's some pics of Druts in action:

Marine pilot and enlisted radar observer from VMFN-513 in Korea at K-4. Note the Mae Wests and poppy suits that the well-dressed mid-century aviator wore.

VMCJ-1 Douglas EF-10B (F3D-2Q before the 1962 designation changes). circa late 1960s.
The Navy had its fling with the F3D, as shown in the VF-14 Tophatters bird on one of USS Intrepid's (CV-11) catapults in November 1954. The experiment didn't last too long, as the F3D wasn't suitable for carrier operations, one reason being the exhausts did damage to the teak decks of the Essex-class boats.
The Navy used the F3D as NAO (now called NFO) trainers at such places as NAS Glynco, Georgia and NAS Miramar (VF-121). This F3D-2T2 was attached to VFAW-3 at NAS North Island (the "T" meant it was a trainer and the "2" after it meant it was the second version of the F3D-2 converted into that role).
