Nice costume! :supz: But, not to nittpick...that type of cardboard corrugate wouldn't be in production for another 20 years. The flying boots wouldn't come into the inventory until 1943. The Air Corps never issued those goggles, the Airman is out of uniform...and we haven't got to his squadron patch... :?

Happy Halloween! :lol:

Nice outfit.
