WWII in Color – Color Kodachrome Slides – 1944 SBD Dauntless Marine Dive Bombers VMSB-332 w/ Aircraft FOLLOW UP

I’ve been lucky enough to acquire another 1944 color slide to add to my growing collection of slides from Walter Huff, a WWII Marine pilot. This one is especially interesting as it shows his name on his yellow inflatable life vest. Slick hair too!

I happened across the website today and i was surprised to see my wife’s Uncle, Walter Huff Pictured sitting on the wing of his SBD Dive Bomber. Is it possible to obtain copy’s of the pictures of him that you have on file because we only have a couple of b/w pics of him during the war years.Unfortunately Walter passed away a few years ago and had no children of his own, a fact i remember that he contributed to flying because his fellow pilots were also childless. I have other stories of his experiences that i could also share. We would love to pass on Walters legacy to our future generations. Thank You, William Holl
