Amid photographs of aircraft, crews, and combat missions, personal collections like this one from a WWII B-24 belly gunner also preserved small tokens of home. This 1944 Christmas postcard, featuring a charming illustration of a dog beneath snowy pine boughs, reflects the human side of wartime service -- a simple holiday greeting exchanged between an airman and loved ones, treasured enough to be kept alongside his military mementos.
