Some pilots

[Dirk]

I believe several of these were taken while the flying candidate was at flight school- I think kind of a graduation picture. Three of the images posted here came from the collection of a enlisted pilot, who was the grandfather of my college roommate. He believe he flew observation aircraft. I was able to interview the grandfather once in the early 1980’s and was lucky enough to hear some of his stories. The war was not a pleasant experience for him…he and his family left Germany in 1920 for America. The family still has the collection in their possession thankfully, but they allowed me to choose five photos from it…one I choose was a British pilot being field interrogated after mistakenly landing at a German occupied airfield.
