Ground Crew Servicing Single-Engine Radial Fighter/Attack Aircraft, WWII Pacific Airfield -- Pat McAleer Collection
Ground crewmen service a single-engine, radial-powered military aircraft on a Pacific airfield during World War II. Though heavily faded with age, the photograph -- part of the personal collection of Pat McAleer -- captures the routine but essential maintenance work that kept American aircraft flight-ready during the demanding pace of Pacific Theater operations.
