Cover of "So You're Coming to Corpus," a welcome booklet issued to new Naval Aviation Cadets reporting to Naval Air Station Corpus Christi, Texas. Established in 1941, NAS Corpus Christi became one of the U.S. Navy's principal flight training installations, producing thousands of naval aviators during and after the Second World War. The whimsical cover art depicts an incoming cadet approaching a Navy trainer aircraft, humorously capturing the anticipation of new arrivals. This booklet was preserved as part of a personal scrapbook documenting the training experience of a Navy aviation cadet. Project: 218308
