Which Plane were they Flying?
Could it be an attempt at being a Douglas TBD Devastator?
Did not see it mentioned in the Life article.

It is a Devastator torpedo bomber. Liked only by model kit builders and Japanese fighter pilots.

yes, correct...as made famous/infamous by their massacre at Midway..something like 38 out of 41 shot down...Ensign George Gay was the surviving pilot of one, even his backseaters did not make it..
