Would love to find photos or albums from members of the 36th Bomb Squad while it was in Alaska and the Aleutians. My GGGUncle was in that from 1940-43 and I would love to see pictures from other airmen who were up there. I don't have any pictures of Uncle Harold during that time, so would love to see pics. I've seen "Report from the Aleutians", and that was so cool! Wondering if someone on here has any and would share with me!

Have you been to the Aleutians webpage? It is probably the largest collection of info on the military in the Aleutian Islands:

Furthermore, if you are on Facebook, they have a group there as well. I have also been adding my photo collection to my Facebook group "Alaska Military History Association". I don't think I have any specifically identified to the 36th, but I do have several from the Aleutians. Feel free to join the group. There is also the Alaska Veterans museum in Anchorage. They have some photos in their collection, but I'm not sure if it is digitized. The Alaska digital Archives page has tons of photos to look at as well, but be forewarned, the tags and ids on the photos are usually pretty generic:

I hope this helps.
