Germany, May, 1953: Singer Bing Crosby poses with members of the 7th Army Flight Detachment, who were working on a training problem in the field. Crosby drove from Stuttgart (where he picked up a new Mercedes), to Frankfurt (where he played some golf), with a stop for lunch at Stars and Stripes' Darmstadt office along the way.
