Lieutenant Harold B. "Min" Miller, USN
With his Curtiss F9C-2 "Sparrowhawk" fighter, while
visiting his hometown, Newton, Iowa, while en route from Lakehurst,
New Jersey, to Moffett Field, California, in October 1933. The
man in the plane's cockpit is Aviation Machinist's Mate 3rd Class
Glowacki.
Both men, and the aircraft, were part of the USS Macon
(ZRS-5) heavier-than-air group. Macon was also en route
to Moffett Field, but her "Sparrowhawks" were making
the trip independently.
