Nice to see I'm not the only one who has done some serious reading and research on the 214 and Col. Boyington.  My journey into the Corsair and the 214 started with the tv series.  I enjoyed the show, mostly for the aircraft as the story lines often made little sense for a combat unit, but it did start what has become a life-long love affair with the Corsair.  Given the number of airworthy FG-1D's (and one F4U-1A), which could easily be painted to look like F4U-1A's, in the U.S., coupled with CGI graphics, I really wish a true telling of the story of VMF-214 would be made by Hollywood.  But, seeing what they like to do (CHiPs movie... barf!), it might be worse than the tv series.
