| Description | ot-2058-10: Safety Equipment: Rubber Life Boats. One-man rubber life rafts are standard equipment in all Navy single-seat fighters. The raft is packed and stowed below the turtle back immediately behind the pilot’s seat. After a landing at sea, the pilot pulls out the raft, turns the valve on the bottle of CO2 and the raft inflates in one minute. To get onto the raft requires much the same dexterity as getting into a canoe. Pilot grabs opposite side of raft and throws himself horizontal across the boat. Office of War Information Photograph.
