some of my outtakes:
I think you made the right choice Wendy, your entry was the best of the pack.

No shortage of material! I liked the first outtake for the title, and the second one for the feel of the photo.
What a cool place! Just Googled it and very definitely a place for a ton of photo opportunities:-) Your entry Tin Soldier and Barrels of Fun I feel are the best of the set because they show the people in action doing their jobs.
I like this one better than your entry (maybe with a hint of sepia). The others could have been staged portraits while this one adds some appropriate context. It's not quite sharp, and the highlights are blown, but that just adds to the nostalgic feel IMO.
FYI... Whiskey-7 is one of the actual troop transport plans that dropped the first group of soldiers from the 82nd airborne behind enemy lines during the Normandy invasion.
