Here is just one example:
"Photo #12 - In the above photo can be seen the 4 lines of survival that ran from the crewman's fight gear and plugged into the airplane. The large green hose is for oxygen. One black communication line runs from his A-11 flight helmet earphones. The second black communication line runs from his push-to-talk switch. The push-to-talk switch is plugged into the internal microphone of the A-14 mask. The 4th line runs from his F-3 electric suit. The lead cord or extension cord is shown unconnected. Hanging from the sleeve of the left wrist is the connector for the gloves, and just below I've opened the glove to expose the connecting points. The flak helmet is the type M-3. This flak helmet was the same as the G.I. steel pot worn by the infantry, but altered slightly with the addition of ear flaps to fit better over the flight helmets. The M-3 did not have a separate liner that slipped in and out. When you run your hand over the top of the M-3, it feels like fur. A flocking was sprayed over them to keep the guys bare hands from freezing to them. It showed up in 1944. Much of what is displayed here can be seen in the photo of 1Lt Ted Misthal. Examples of the M-3 flak helmet and a flak vests can be seen here." --303rd BG Website
On the 23rd of September 1995 Alan E. Magee, accompanied by his wife Helen, returned to St Nazaire to take part in a ceremony sponsored by French citizens, dedicating a memorial to his seven fellow crewmen killed in the crash of Snap! Crackle! Pop! in the forest at La Baule Escoublac on Jan. 3, 1943.

The team above played for the U.S. 3rd and 5th Fleet in the Pacific in World War Two in 1945.
These Canadians (and possibly some Americans) in the Royal Canadian Air Force played together in 1942 in Europe.
We attended our first Idaho Falls Chukar game of the season tonight. Nothing quite as American or as mellow and relaxing as a good baseball game. The minor league players play for love of the game. The crowd drinks beer and eats hot dogs. The national anthem starts off every game. During the seventh inning stretch, everybody sings 'Take Me out to the Ball Game' for at least the thousandth time. When a ball is fouled into the parking lot, the public address announces, after the sound effect of breaking glass: "If that was your car, it's time to call Falls Auto Glass for a free estimate!" Dizzy-bat races. The wave. The mascot. It just doesn't get any better than this. 
Idaho Falls is a Single-A affiliate of the Kansas City Royals, one of the worst teams in baseball. We get the guys that are right out of high school or just drafted out of college. Every few years, one of them makes it to 'the show', but the rest just fade into obscurity like 99% of everybody who ever loved to play the game, myself included, and are destined to watch.
