D. Sheley has an amazing set of images of USAAF bomber jackets from WWII. While looking through them I was stoked to find the fit my grandfather wore for his Lancaster Bomber, “The Bad Penny”. Primitive design like this is my bread and butter.

New York’s famous 369th regiment arrives home from France, 1919.
Nicknamed the Harlem Hellfighters, the 369th Regiment was the first all-black regiment to fight in World War I. They arrived in France in 1918 and fought on the front lines for six months, longer than any other American unit during the war.
