Do you know these men?

This photo was found by the children of Pat and Bonnie (Herman) Dobson as they were cleaning out their parents' home in Staples. No identification was found except for the name "J.R. Dodd" and number "266-35" in the lower left; probably an identification of the photographer. Lloyd Nelson has been trying to find the local connection. He believes the airplane in the background is eithe a B-17 or a B-25, most likely the former. This looks like a combat crew, probably from WWII but it could be as late as the Korean Conflict. Anyone who has information is asked to call Nelson at 894-3613. The original of this photo is at Nelson Insurance Agency for anyone who wants to get a closer look.
