As I gathered photos for the AAB website, I utilized  images from my  extensive personal library as well as from other past employees and friends. A number of photos were taken by amateur as well as professional photographers. Many images have been taken off the internet. My intent was certainly not to circumvent any copyright issues. This website is a not for profit and is only viewed for historical interest. I will  return to review photos and give credit were possible. I will also use this page to link to photographers page as possible. Please let me know if I have failed to give credit. Thank you to all, for photos that appear on the many pages of this website. We couldn't tell the story without these fantastic images.
