Some years back, I purchased a folder full of photos and documents at an estate sale. I really admired some of the gentleman's photographs. Here is an example:

Anyway, there was a picture of him standing next to a p-38, but it didn't look quite right. Upon closer examination, I determined that it was just a small model. The Gentleman had superimposed a picture of him onto the picture of the model. He even got the shadows realitively correct. I hope you can see the details after I shrunk them.

He must have had a lot of free time.

Not that I found :lol: . I did get four photos of aircraft. One is taken out the window of a plane. It shows several other planes flying in formation. I think they are dc-10's but I'm really not an expert.

Here are some more pictures from the same group. Some are pictures of his surroundings and friends that he took, and some are pictures of him that they took.

The vet's name is Stanford (stan) Paulson. I don't know what unit he was with, but there is one photo showing him getting a medal and he is wearing a 5th AF patch.
