3 February 1946 - This Day in Aviation

A little bit of Aviation History.
The only Connies I saw were the EC-121's in VAQ-33 at NAS Norfolk, Virginia.
One night while returning to the ship after having dinner with a shipmate and his family, I was at the red signal where the road met the taxiway. There was some snow on the ground and it made for an amazing experience.
