Wordless Wednesday: J.V. Brinlee and Air Force Class


Here is a picture of my father, Junior Varnell "Barney" Brinlee, with his Air Force class. He is the second one from the right in the front row; the picture would have been taken in the early 1950s. My husband says that the aircraft you see in the picture is a B-47 Stratojet.

  1. I love these old group pictures. I just wish there was some way to follow all the stories.

  2. I do, too. I have my father's service records and I was thinking of trying to look his unit up - maybe there is something on it online. If not, maybe I should start something.

  4. Thanks, Becky. One of the reasons I decided to post it was the big smile my Dad has on his face in it.
