| The Louis Lane Collection | |||||||||||||||||||||||

Louis Lane was a turret specialist working in the sub-depot at Knettishall from 1943 to 1945. At some point in 1944, he shot a series of color sides of 388th aircraft during routine maintenance procedures. Mr. Lane died in 1995. Although some of the slides were later lost, the bulk of his collection was given by the family to the 388th Bombardment Group (H) Association, Inc. for safekeeping. For many years the Association has endeavored to protect these images from unauthorized publication and other forms of piracy. In 2003, it was decided to officially copyright the images and publish them on our own website. Soon we will be adding the history of each aircraft shown. We hope that you will enjoy these rare color images from the Louis Lane Collection. To view a slide, simply click on a thumbnail, a new browser window will open with a full size image. |
