    Goggles 100 years of Marine Corps aviation!

    Today marks the centennial of USMC aviation. On May 22, 1912, Marine Corps 1st Lt. Alfred A. Cunningham reported to Annapolis, Maryland for flight training, becoming the first Marine aviator and marking the birth of Marine Corps aviation. To celebrate 100 years of USMC aviation excellence, I took a few photos of the AirVenture Museum's F4U-4 Corsair, finished in the marking of Marine ace Kenneth Walsh. Walsh was the first Corsair ace and the fourth highest Marine ace with 21 victories during World War Two. Enjoy!
