The Snapshots in Time Collection
Gallery: Part 3
Baseball games, a squadron softball final, an Officers Club band, and a June 1945 skeet range capture how airmen of the 312th Bomb Group spent their hours between missions at forward Pacific bases. Alongside them, LSTs unloading on a Philippine beachhead, situation maps in a mess tent, and encounters with Filipino townspeople place that daily life within the Southwest Pacific advance of 1944-1945.
