Who's General is this?

[Ztex]

I have been scanning some slides on my new scanner...I have a box of slides that I rescued from the trash in my high school ROTC class.

It says on the box "The Air War in WWII, a pictorial essay"

Among them are these gentlemen...

Anyone know who they are?





They look familiar but I can't place them.


Then there's these guys that we should all know..

Mitchell


Spaatz


Eaker


And the Man! LeMay

#4 I believe is Carl "Tooey" Spaatz.

The first looks kinda like Gen. Schriever.

Funny! I did not even see the photo caption! When I saw the photo, I thought he looked like Spaatz, although older than he looked in the one or two photos of him that I recall having seen.

But, since I was guessing, please credit that one to me as a " good i.d." : )

Tom gets the Tulio award for guessing the named generals!



It is the first two guys that I don't know who they are....I think CAP may be right on Schriever.

I wonder who the other guy is?

Thanks

I agree, it looks like Twining. Funny how a change in uniform makes a huge difference on how many ribbons you can show off.
