LOOK MAGAZINE - PUGNACIOUS PUPS AD

On a visit to the Ft. MacArthur Museum in San Pedro, California, I found this ad from a Look Magazine. It is an ad for Oldsmobile (GM) using the 355th Fighter Squadron's insigne! What a pleasant surprise for me to see the Pugnacious Pups logo featured on the wall of the museum.


















I believe this ad is from the June 13, 1944 issue of LOOK MAGAZINE. (I found this information on the www.2Neat.com website)

Perkins' RCAF Log Book and Jim Howard Article



Earlier this year, I was given more of William R. Perkins' belongings from my mother. One of these was his Royal Canadian Air Force - Pilot's Flying Log Book. It lists all the flights he took while with the RCAF.





One interesting thing I found inside was an article about James Howard. I am not sure where it was published. Has anyone ever seen this before?
