In the book Air War Pacific by Christy Campbell I noted that apparently the Douglas Dauntless was known by its crews as the "Barge" and the "Speedy-D".
Does anyone know if these names carried on over to the RNZAF squadrons that flew the Dauntless? Or were they only used by the Americans?

I've heard 'Slow But Deadly' (SBD) but, again, think it's an American thing.
