National Guard’s Red Feather “Flying Squadron”

• CATEGORIES: Features, Old Images, Old News Articles This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

In 1948, the Massachusetts National Guard used two jeeps adorned with giant red feathers to aid community communications as part of a community Red Feather Campaign. This news was reported in the November 06, 1949, issue of the Boston Globe. Unfortunately, I could not track down a color image of this jeep.
