For All You WWII History Buffs

I like it when I get sent interesting e-mails. I will share this one with you. Thanks to KC Newcome.

World War II-Lockheed Burbank Aircraft Plant Camouflage. During World War II the Army Corps of Engineers needed to hide the Lockheed Burbank Aircraft Plant to protect it from a Japanese air attack. They covered it with camouflage netting and to make it look like a rural subdivision from the air. The first photo is "Before" the other photos are the "After" shots
