H-19 CHICKASAW on the southern side of Finthen Airfield. It appears that the airfield was still under operational control of the French Army and a section had been set aside for aircraft of the newly arrived 8th Infantry Division aviation section. Photo was taken by a French soldier.
(Does anyone have more details on operations at Finthen Airfield during this period?)
