Thanks for the photos. I just wonder as to why they would be flying marines to Guantanamo in 1958. Nothing going on there at that time. They did fly marines from Cherry Point in route to Lebanon in 1958. Any indication as to where the bottom two photos were taken. If I had to guess I would say Little Creek Naval Base, Va. for the middle picture and Morehead City, N.C. for the bottom.
