Thanks for the post- it looks like another project.

I poked around a little, so I'll reserve comment until I have a  
better grasp of it all.

One point- how was he was able to get color film during WWII? How did  
he rate, with rationing and all? Kodachrome seems like it would have  
been reserved for war use. It sounds like he was "just this guy with  
a camera", not a big time artist or combat photographer.

Nothing against him, just curious.

Cheers
Mike Beacom
