Comments: My father was career military starting with AF in Korean War and then Army w/101st Airborne. He was Chief Inspector in air craft among other things. I have 2 photos taken of Flight 6518 SQDN 3747 Honor Flight JAN-1951, Sheppard AFB. The Air Force has the photo at https://www.bmtflightphotos.af.mil/1950s/1951/ but the people are not the same, just the 3 pictures at the top. I think it could be my photo is inlisted men. I have 2 with the names of some of the men on the back. Where can I donate one of these? I also wrote to the AF History Dept to see if they could answer the question on the 2 different photos. The set up and site are all the same. Thank you. My father is Charles B. Sutton
