Note the Beechcraft JRB Expeditor at left. This is the same type of plane (perhaps the same plane) that Dixie Kiefer was riding in when he died six months after this photo was taken.

Famous WW2 Quote
"You ask, what is our aim? I can answer in one word. It is victory. Victory at all costs. Victory in spite of all terrors. Victory, however long and hard the road may be, for without victory there is no survival."
