Looking at the plane, I wonder if he was ever stationed in Nigeria?

Nope. He was leader of a training squadron in San Antonio, then was sent to England to assist in training there.

Just joshin'.
Couldn't help but notice the plane's number: 419.

A bunch of my family was in the military too, but we don't have any photos form that, except a few still have their enlistment photos or whatever they call them, you know the ones that look like Id photos?
But we have a ton of stories,
This image is so epic!

there were a ton of that plane, i can never remember what it was called, when i was at tech school at kistler in biloxi. they were painted yellow though, which made them look even more like bumble bees, and their wings, like those of bees, look too short to fly, yet fly they did, and did and did and every day there'd be dozzens of them practicing their touch and goes.

major? really? the highest rank that doesn't involve politics. or so another major told me once upon a time.
(not that i'm convinced anything doesn't, even in the military. especially in the military).

my father was in flight training during the war until it was canceled...

Me uncle was a Navy instructor...
