• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

Taken during a recent visit to the islands.

I just like the shots as capturing a cool airport atmosphere rather than being aircraft glamour pics. :)

My Uncle was a top turret gunner on a B-17 that patroled the Caribbean during WWII.

He said not much ever happened out that way- at least during his tour.

Much Italian and German sub activity was on hand in the Caribbean shipping lanes during 1941-42. Many oil tankers from New Orleans to South American ports were sunk. There are a few books on these unknown war activities.....
