B-24 Liberator Cockpit

U-Boat Bridge Crew leather gear with side cap, commanders hat. also present... a shell casing recovered from U-boat wreck

list of survivors and the dead, along with items recovered from sunken merchant ship

various manuals, training publications produced for the merchant marines

C-47 hangs ready to drop paratroopers

Letter donated to the museum addressed to a Mr Oglesby of Shreveport, LA. When read of the surroundings of the museum it helps to drive home the feeling of loss and sadness many thousands of fathers, mothers, family and friends experienced during the war years when receiving such letters

The gracious and lovely spitfire; i was unable to get a better shot due to a section of catwalk being inaccessible during my visit to this area but she is majestic from any angle

~cheers friends. Hope you enjoyed the images half as much as we enjoyed these Hurricanes from Pat O'Brien's
