Why C not F?

Hey guys!

Just have being watching old documentary about how to operate F6F Hellcat, and noticed that all gauges concerning temperatures measures in Celsius no F.
So the question is, why would pioneers of aviations US would switch their F measures onto C?
Just curious. Why would they made this headache for their pilots?

Thanks.
