WWII Training at "Maxwell Field" in Montgomery, Alabama




WWII really WAS a different time. Can you imagine a U.S. military service writing that caption today?



It took a little time for these aviation cadets at Maxwell Field, Ala. to concentrate on taking code from such an eyeful as these WAAC instructors in the Pre-Flight School for pilots. Seated, is Junior Leader Better McNiece, of Portland, Ore., and the cadets think she sends it "solid." Standing is Junior Leader Chris Aos, of Seattle, Wash.
