These are original photos by my friend and I who met in 1955 in Civil Air Patrol and went into the Air Force after high school. Our photos are airshows, museums, static displays and ramp shots. We photoed unusual civil types, airline colors, warbirds and relics. All originals owned by me will be given photo credit as well as those from US archives and others of historical interest.
