description

Summary

Lt. Col. Boeding, commander of the 107th Fighter Squadron, meets with a local resident who maintains a memorial marker near the former Advanced Landing Ground 4, also known as Airfield 4, near Deux-Jumeaux, France, June 3, 2018. The former airfield has since reverted to use as farmland. The 107th Tactical Fighter Squadron operated from the airfield for about a week beginning in late June 1944, becoming the first U.S. reconnaissance squadron to operate from the European mainland during World War II. Personnel and aircraft from the current 107th Fighter Squadron were in France in June 2018 to mark the 74th anniversary of D-Day during the war. The 107th is a component of the 127th Wing, Michigan Air National Guard. (U.S. Air National Guard photo by Tech. Sgt. Dan Heaton)

The objects in this collection are from The U.S. National Archives and Defense Visual Information Distribution Service. The U.S. National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) was established in 1934 by President Franklin Roosevelt. NARA keeps those Federal records that are judged to have continuing value—about 2 to 5 percent of those generated in any given year. There are approximately 10 billion pages of textual records; 12 million maps, charts, and architectural and engineering drawings; 25 million still photographs and graphics; 24 million aerial photographs; 300,000 reels of motion picture film; 400,000 video and sound recordings; and 133 terabytes of electronic data. The Defense Visual Information Distribution Service provides a connection between world media and the American military personnel serving at home and abroad. All of these materials are preserved because they are important to the workings of Government, have long-term research worth, or provide information of value to citizens.
