Quoted from the first issue: "Spindrift greets you! It will appear spasmodically with news and views of interest to Ship's company of the Naval Aviation Pre-Flight Training School of Iowa City. These will include announcements of an official and unofficial nature and a calendar of events, cultural, athletic and social. Spindrift will also present various topics of general interest--'tintypes' of station personnel, humor and gossip, much of which will be illustrated by our staff artist (Ted Drake) who already has acquired some local fame. It may dip into an occasional subject for discussion, but as a rule will not indulge in editorials.", Item 1, Box: 12. Wartime and Military Service Records, RG28.0001.001.
