Any information you can share would be appreciated! The most burning question I have, that I. Cannot find anywhere is "what color was the question mark used as nose art?"<br />I have many pictures my grandfather took (including of his time at camp training as well as stationed overseas that I would be willing to share if interested) but as the pictures are all black and white all I can assume is that the "?" was black.
