The Snapshots in Time Collection
Gallery: Part 1
An airman's album for the 345th Bomber Group ranges from B-25 Mitchells in formation over the Pacific and the group's famous Indian chief tail art on Ie Shima to stateside barracks, a hometown marching formation, and sightseeing at the St. Thomas Yuma Indian Mission in Arizona. Handwritten notes on the reverse of prints add a first-person voice to the record.
