Jack Shinn
Jack is an artist, and found an outlet during the war painting "Nose Art," insignias that were on the noses of B-24s. His first effort, "Black Magic," was on the nose of a radar aircraft, and was done in part to impress his future wife, who modeled for the piece. Jack explains that most nose art was of naked women, but, because he was doing it based on his girlfriend, he painted her wearing a dress.
