Thx a lot Phil.

I was amazed myself...some great pictures of jackets and the guys stuck in them there as well...
I loved that pic with the two guys wearing what I think are M-445 jacket stencilled LSS on the back watching flight ops on a carrier...

Plus a black Twin P-51 ...if I am not mistaken...Wow!

Those Twin-Mustangs were insane beasts...and they scored the first A2A victories of the war while covering Seoul Airport in the opening hours of the war...

Btw that wrecked Corsair with the 5 kill marks must be the bird flown by the only USN ace of the war Guy Bordelon...IIRC this bird was wrecked in a landing accident flown by another pilot some time after Bordelon scored his kills (all against Bed-Check Charlies)

Thank you, this is big collection of photos.
I published some of these photos on this forum earlier, but I see part of the photos for the first time.

Interesting image of the defecting Mig-15 at Kimpo Air Base. Today exposed at the The National Museum of the U.S. Air Force.

Thank you for sharing!

Wow, a TacRecon RF-86F...there were not much of these birds around...

That clown jacket might be worn by a flight ops guy...looks like the colors seen on some of the jeeps that were used by ops guys on the flight line...
