Ran across this, was interesting to see how different the nation was during wartime. I wonder what became of the people in these pictures. Most of them high quality color.

Indeed, possibly kodachrome film. Due to the notches visible on the side, the film can be identify as large format and what kind.

very atmospheric pics, cool link! :up:

I find picture 8 (http://www.upi.com/News_Photos/Features/New-photos-from-WWII-era-America/5514/8/) extremely interesting: camouflage class. Didn't know they developed camo patterns from aerial photos.
