Using a free version of Serif PhotoPlus 6.0, downloaded off the 'net. I'm sure the " name brand " photo editors can do a better job, and have more bells and whistles, but I'm a cheap skate !

Sorry Jack ! :( I normally try to get that stuff right, and look up colors and markings, but with the mouth, I just assumed it was red ..... When you assume, you make an ... of you and me.

Great photos. Loved the one of the cows hanging out by the glider. Once the war moved on, life started returning to normal.

Agree Pat---The invasion stripes sort of helped them blend in with the cattle!

Excellent series SHAEF!
Not one of these postings of yours that I haven't gone back and looked twice.

For the steely-eyed among us who notice the 459th FS P-38 has black mouths in the pic above .... Jack Cook has NOT been partaking of too many mint juleps. :drinkers: I redid the color to black when Jack pointed out my mistake. If ya gonna do it, might as well do it right ....
