Hi All,

We’ve added a gallery of photos of the Idaho Military History Museum in Boise, ID. Very nice museum run by very interesting and gracious folks.

Very nice pictures, Paul.
Just two notes:
a. The MG in the last page is an MG34.
b. The F-86's SN corresponds to an A model, but the aircraft has certain features of the F-86F-2 - windshield from late E model onwards, enlarged gun blast panel with two guns per side, the latter meaning it was probably used in Project GUNVAL in Korea.

Thanks, Costas for your corrections and info. Always appreciated.

Cheers,
VB

You are welcome. I was amazed to see such a rare aircraft (IIRC about ten were made for operational trials in Korea and some ended up in the ANG).

Great set of photos.
The two ship models are the USS Ronald Reagan, CVN-76 & the USS New Jersey, BB62. The artillery piece, centre of photo 295, is a Japanese model 41 (1908) 75-mm infantry gun.
