Contents of the Collection

The James A. Klotz World War II Collection is a small collection comprised of documents and photographs from Klotz's time in the Marines during and after World War II. The items gathered are primarily related to aircraft maintenance, including handwritten notes, aviation machinist training materials, aviation circulars, and checklists for aircraft maintenance for the St. Louis Lambert Naval Air Station. Nine black-and-white photographs feature Marines standing at attention and a Vought F7U Cutlass on a tarmac. A journal, an Aeronautical vest-pocket handbook from Pratt and Whitney, and a laminated card on a metal tie with pre-flight and landing procedures supplement the other materials.
