Billy Mitchell's Wings and Uniforms [visit to NMUSAF]

[cwnorma]

I was in Dayton, OH last week, and while there I had a chance to visit the National Museum of the United States Air Force.  Unfortunately (for me) it appeared that a lot of the material in the "Early Years" Gallery was being changed up.  For example, the Shorty Schroeder material and large observation balloon were both off display among other items.  On display though were Billy Mitchell's uniforms.  I tried to get good photos of the wings:

 

 

 

 

 

 

I apologize for the glare, but NMUSAF is lit quite darkly and it is very difficult to get photos through the glass.

I had the same problem taking pictures in Paris at the Les Invalides Musée de l'Armée Paris. The galleries were dimly lit and the glare/reflections were terrible
