The US Army made limited use of the Dauntless as the A-24 Banshee. Their combat experience with the plane was not as successful as the Navy's. After mid-1942 it was mainly used as a trainer or in lower risk combat areas of the Pacific. Note that a similarly numbered SBD-6 Dauntless, Bu Aer 54654, is preserved in the USS Midway Museum in San Diego.

This Dauntless crashed into Lake Michigan in July 1943 whilst being flown on a carrier qualification flight by Major Edward Harold Drake, USMC. Fortunately the pilot survived and his plane was salvaged in the early 1990s, restored and is now part of this super floating museum.

Crashed/ditched in Lake Michigan on 24 November 1944 while attempting to land on the carrier USS Wolverine (IX64). 60 years later, the pilot said in a phone interview that he 'just crashed into the lake', like it ran out of fuel or something. The aircraft was recovered in April 2009 and restored at the National Naval Aviation Museum in Pensacola.

The SBD-3 Dauntless had been ordered by the French navy before the fall of France in 1940. From late 1943, 32 SBD-5s were delivered to the Aéronavale and some 50 similar A-24B Banshees to the French air force. The A-24s were mostly used as trainers in Morocco, but some did see action during the liberation of France. 254700 is ex 42-54700.
