This is 1st Lieut. L. R. Hewett, SE-5 pilot, pointing to his 4 and 3 dice, a sign of good luck symbol painted on his SE-5a C.8747, while in Wichita, Kansas on May 1, 1919. This was the Victory Loan Flying Circus, Mid-West Flight's 19th air show on their tour of the Midwest. They were actually five miles north of Wichita, flying from the "West Wood Flying Field."

The RAF did not exist at this time, it was still the R.F.C. until April 1918

The two British SE-5s, including a full view of C8745 here, are fully assembled on the morning of April 15, 1919, in the center section of the Illinois State Fairgrounds racetrack but still have coverings protecting their propellers prior to having their engines warmed up. The wing and fuselage cockades were colored blue, white and red, outside to inside. This was Capt. Beauchamp-Proctor’s mount he used to “wreak vengeance on the enemy” during the afternoon air show there. However, I think this is a duplicate photo.
