These U.S. Army Air Force (USAAF) photos were not released for publication until the middle of 1946, a year after the war in Europe officially ended. One reason for the late release of the photos is that many did not begin arriving ‘state side’ until the end of 1945, remaining with their respective units until the units returned to the U.S. or were disbanded.
