Thank for sharing these family heirlooms.
So glad that you have these to remember your great Dad by! miKKo
Was your dad also in China? There is a Chinese Nationalist insignia on the gate in picture 3.
Chris Yes he flew over from India many times to western China, i wondered where these pictures were from, I found a set he took to Florida when he retired in 1985. I just found this set from ww11 Army Air Force 1941 flight school which you was sent to India in 1942 to fly L-5 small planes over the mountains. no maps or no weather, and no computers 500 planes crashed into the mountains over 2 years.
Then to Korea as a forward flyer and Vietnam in the 70s
Now i have pictures from all these wars, i cannot see the differences of Korea, or China, India prints.
I have some other prints here, maybe some are from China can you look and them Crisnp?
I bet the right print is the cook guys i have a print of the 3 USA cookers with the same building behind, I will but on here today
Oh, I do hope that you will continue working on this photo, and post many more. God bless your good father! Thank you for posting this. Regards, miKKo
