    This hangar later became a "boat barn" for Officers stationed at NAS Corpus Christi

    She can't be painting the insignia free-hand. Either the photo is staged, or she's just touching up the edges. Her arms are resting on the painted surface, so it must be dry. Bad form, resting a paint can on a fabric-covered wing.

    His piercing eyes and his youth are striking. I wonder what happened to the poor young fellow?

    After a lot of years, I can watch an excelent portrait that it could do it with very simples cameras. The expression is magnific. How could be his future then this shot ?
