Great shots, always liked the C-46, especially with the four bladed props.

Something doesn't look right with the people in Post #48. The two on the left seem to be outlined and the one inside the doorway looks odd

I was thinking the same thing, also the nacelle looks strange above them, I don't see a prop or any prop wash if it is running.

I sense a doctored/censored wartime photo.

Looks like more shadows than troops on the left and no shadows for the troops on the right
