Taking a break from the Airtanker thread, here are some images I've found in my discovery process. I can't say whether these are in Korea or Japan, as nothing is written on the frames, but these were from the batch marked "Korea". Dad never talked about the Korean war, but he sure liked to talk about the planes. I share them with you because I think Dad would have liked that :)

I for one send along my "Thanks" for the posting ... I would venture to say that some of the photos sure look like the Korea I remember with the background ...

That old "boxcar" looks good.

Thanks again

Excellent shots. Your dad did a great job getting aircraft shots. The color is a nice bonus.

I like the last two pictures... dosent look like anyone is helping the guy unload the Skymaster... :lol:
