This DH-4B looks more like a DH-4M-1 to me, with its larger wheels mounted farther forward, and the spare tire under the fuselage. For those thinking it is a DH-4B-4 "Airways" conversion, the fuselage rear cockpit hasn't been modified. If you could see the Air Corps horizontal stripe rudder markings here, you would definitely rule it out as being a DH-4B, i.e., dated prior to 1927.

T.M. (for those who are unfamiliar with the type) stood for Thomas-Morse Aircraft Corp.

Although I can't get a full view of the plane, it appears to be a Thomas-Morse S-4C with the shorter-span wings. I have numerous photos of this pilot, although rarely without his service cap. It appears to be six-victory ace Capt. Edgar G. Tobin, 94th Aero Squadron, 3/7/1918 to 4/2/1018, then 103rd Aero Squadron 4/3/1918 to Armistice. Capt. Tobin stayed in the U.S. Air Service postwar at Kelly Field, San Antonio, and as an Air Service Reserve Officer in the Organized Reserves in the San Antonio area, where he was promoted to his final rank of Major in the Spring of 1922. Best guess is that the location was Kelly Field No. 2, Air Service advanced flying school, San Antonio, early-1920s. Tobin received his flight training at Issoudun Aerodrome in France during WWI. But without seeing markings on the fuselage, it's impossible to conclude anything further.

The text written in French at the side gives: 'Aéroplane Allemand capturé par les Italiens. Le moteur Benz 6 cylindres 180 HP et la mitrailleur qu'il commande pour le tir à travers l'hélice (Biplan LVG).'
