IMAGECaptain Virgil H. Durrance, Adjutant of the 62nd Fighter Squadron, 56th Fighter Group. Handwritten caption on reverse: 'Capt. Virgil H. Durrance, Adjutant, 62nd Ftr. Sq. This was Lt.Col. Dave C. Schilling's affable and right-hand [illegible]. Virgil was a very quiet-soft spoken man - rated a adminstrative officer. A former school teacher who never smoke nor drank. In contrast to Schilling, Durrance was the complete opposite - that made [illegible - his ability and education. I don't ever remember him addressing a cuss word.'
