Country:  | Yes, but that one almost tells a story. I am an amateur photographer, so I see lots of photos. For some reason, that one really caught my attention.

Country: | I know, I know. I was ...how do I put this without someone turning it into something gay ...oh wait, I can't. So yeah...
Anywho...it would tell a story if my friends grandma wasn't senile. And if one of her sisters didn't glue the ****in' picture destroying the writing on the back.

Country: | If your gonna glue it in an album, at least label the picture underneath the picture with what was on the back. Sheesh, the way some people do it, you wouldf think that future generations would all have ESP to figure out the detail!

Country: | Alright, I know this thread was dead. But I've gathered some other information ...that I don't know if it's correct but from the help you all gave me and my own research I've gathered this;
USAF AM1C Benny Podowski - 1953d Airborne Air Control Squadron (AACS). It's in 1953 but before November 1953 (when F-100s were introduced at Misawa) so, it's 6016 Air Base Wing as host of Misawa AB (where it is). Those planes in the background are F-84s. And he's an air traffic controller!
And that large plane is Japanese civil DC-4.
