HMM-265 Officer Photo-Early 1965
This photo of HMM-265 squadron officers was taken in early 1965 (best guess) on the flight line at New River. Let’s try to figure out who these guys are. There are four rows: one row of three heavies in front plus three rows of nine worker bees for a total of 30 faces. The table below is laid out the same way, with a numbering system to facilitate discussion. A few names have been supplied from the webmaster’s hazy recollections, but they certainly are open to challenge. We invite all members to help, via the discussion board, fill in the missing names.
