ETA: Let it never be said that I won't post pictures of cargo planes and other 'grunt' type haulers like P-3s.

P-3's ,haul. Bombs, torpedoes, rockets and missiles. In short , P-3's haul only death for subs and skimmers. [:D]

LCS-2 Independence. It's the place where all my recycled beer cans have ended up.

The former SECNAV declared these "ships" as Frigates. Mainly because he was tired of hearing crews describe them a "Little Crappy Ships". Would you rather serve on a Cruiser, destroyer or frigate , or a Littoral Combat Ship? [X(][8|][:D]

According to the Duffle bog it wasn't an idle threat. In Top Gun 2 he plays a cashiered Navy officer who as a civilian charter flies rubber dogshit out of a factory in HK. Just sayin' . [:D]

Acheté par la compagnie Aigle Azur en 1948, il fut acquis par l’Armée de l’Air en 1960 qui l’utilisa dix ans avant de le remettre au Musée. L’avion a été repeint aux couleurs du 81st Troop Carrier Squadron du 436th Troop Carrier Group. Le Buzz Buggy était piloté par le Lt. Duane Smith lors du Débarquement.

The aircraft presented:

Thanks for the clarification. The Buzz is intriguing, maybe the pilots' name or nickname.

"C-47 Skytrain "Buzz Buggy," 81st TCS, 436th TCG, USAAF"

Anyway, a Pacific theatre warship which I'm fairly certain does not appear in the War in the Pacific scenarios. Three guesses for three names to choose from, of which two names do appear in the WitP scenarios, just on different ships.
