Flightpath Posted December 21, 2012 Share #128 Posted December 21, 2012 Colonel Henry "Hap" Arnold with actress Mary Pickford circa 1934. Ms. Pickford is wearing a set of World War 1 pilot wings given to her by Arnold shortly after World War 1. An interesting side note about Ms. Pickford is that she was the aunt of Don Chalif who wrote the book, Military Pilot & Aircrew Badges of the World [1870-Present], published by R. James Bender Publishing in 1982. That's a great photo........ looks like they should be in a movie together. Little Mary Pickford was Jed Clampett's favorite movie star (and Tom Mix of course). cheers, -John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnCFord Posted March 2, 2013 Share #129 Posted March 2, 2013 I went to an antique store today and scored some good aviation photos. I have several of this guy. Here he is with his wife. He is unidentified however, in some of the other photos I have he does name some of his friends. I don't have a name for the girl either. I really like this guy. I hope I find something more about him. Will post more later! Also, I will be posting in the 1919-1941 vintage pilot wings thread as well. Cheers!

bunkerhillburning Posted May 14, 2013 Share #130 Posted May 14, 2013 I'm pretty late to the party on this thread. Had I known it existed I would have posted the photo below on this thread rather than starting a thread in the paper / photo section some time ago. A nurse knitting a sweater for her beau and she wears a WWI US Air Service pilots badge. Pretty good guess her man was a pilot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rathbonemuseum.com Posted February 1, 2014 Share #132 Posted February 1, 2014 Well, she is not wearing a wing but she is wearing early air corps enlisted tech rank patches on her sweater. And she is loving that ice cream cone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lee Ragan Posted February 2, 2014 Share #134 Posted February 2, 2014 Well, she is not wearing a wing but she is wearing early air corps enlisted tech rank patches on her sweater. And she is loving that ice cream cone. Looks like she is just wearing a regular AAF "branch of service", Corporal's chevrons with the winged prop under the stripes.
