This will be my last "Putting Them To use" post for a while - need to take more photos! The inspiration for this shot is a photo I took of a 35th Supply Sq POL troop refueling a Huey on the George AFB, CA flightline back on 6 Mar, 1980. Using toys I had readily available, I recreated the scene and think it turned out well. You'll notice the Marx USAF figure is wearing a cap. That was probably standard fare when Marx made these figures back in the mid-'50s, but modern flightline procedures prohibit the wearing of headgear like this because they constitute a FOD (Foreign Object Damage) risk.
