• 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.

Outstanding !

Some are known (see for instance Richard Frank's Guadalcanal) but a lot of them are indeed new to me. Thank you for sharing.
 
Haven't had time to look at all of them yet but there are some great pictures there. Thanks for posting that link.
 
Thanks for the post. My father-in-law was an original crew member of the USN hospital ship Repose. One of those pictures made me wonder if it was him.:salute:

When you go talk to Smith about leaving his feet in his bunk, make sure you mention his pink pants too. It seems like every time we try to have matching clothes, someone messes it up. BROWN PANTS!! How hard is that?
 
Thanks Gary for posting those photos . The enlargement and clarity were outstanding . #93 of the B29 reminds me of my Dad (3rd Mar Div) telling how they had to dive over the sand mounds on Iwo bordering the airstrip when the crippled 29's would come in and the P-51's would ground loop trying to land .
