The Museum's Aircraft
The final production version was the P-38L, which could carry two 300-gallon drop tanks. Deliveries of the L began in June 1944 and continued until August 1945. Of the 10,038 P-38s built, 3,923 were P-38Ls.
The P-38L on display, painted as a P-38J with the 55th Fighter Squadron based in England, was donated to the museum in 1961 by the Kaufmann Foundation, Philadelphia, Penn. The top hats on the left side of the aircraft represent the nine bomber escort missions flown by its pilot, 2nd Lt. Royal D. Frey, with the yellow hat signifying five and the white hats one each.

The Panzerspähwagen 38(t) functioned as command and recon vehicle in the airborne missile tank destroyer platoon.
It had a similar turret with “Luchs”, armed with a 2cm gun to against enemy infantries approaching the platoon. One ATGM was mounted on the right side of the turret.
Additional radio and star antenna improved the ability of communication during airborne missions.

That is how many angels I count in this one image, and that doesn't include the plethora of cherubs seen just about everywhere you don't see an angel.
This is a rework of my February 2010 shoot inside New Bedford's Saint Anthony of Padua Parish.
I tried to photograph the interior this this year for the Christmas but was told that "the floors would not be waxed in time". Not sure what that meant. I also asked to photograph the interior at night but was told I would not be able to do that either because the cost to light the place up is too high...
Oh well, for now, this will have to do.

Missed yesterday. Yesterday was just over the top. I didn't even go home last night and slept on my friend's couch and I didn't have my camera with.
This just sums everything up. Worry.
