those were the flying days. Now your "snoot" is in computer screen.
Fabulous photo, thank you for sharing. Great to know history like this will never die
Thanks for sharing, there's just something timeless about these old crew photographs. My father was stationed at Mitchell Field in the mid-fifties. There's not much left of Mitchell Field now.
True honor to the Great American Generation! Thank you so much, Casey.
Thank you for my freedom!
My thanks also for our freedom
These are the real heroes...Ithere is a stone close to my house where aB24 were shot down after a night mission...
All their name are on it,I stop each time to look at them...when doing my footing.
