So, so happy to find this! A kind gentleman contacted me via Ancestry with info about my dad's WWII service. Until then, we had no idea that he'd done flight training. I have only one photo of him (house fire) so I was ecstatic to find his photo here. Thank you!

Thank you so much for having this on your site! I am currently reading letters written by my Mom and Dad during the time he was in Stamford and he talked about the Plane Wrangler. I don't know what happened to his copy but I'm so glad to find this one!! My dad was Clair J. Clark.
