looking for photos/portraits of Naval Aviators from WW1

Hello,

I am new to this forum but was hoping the collective wisdom of this community might be able to assist…

I am conducting research on the “Attack on Orleans,” which occurred off the coast of Cape Cod, Massacusetts in 1918. In short, during the attack, a German U-boat surface 3-miles offshore and shelled a towboat and her four barges. Some of the shells fired by the submarine struck shore giving the town of Orleans the distinction of being the first and only spot in the United States to receive fire during the entire First World War. Coming to the defense of Orleans were flying boats from the Chatham Naval Air Station. They dropped bombs on the sub (they didn’t explode) and drove off the submarine.

I am wondering if anyone knows where I might be able to get have head shots (portraits) of some of the aviators engaged during this engagement:

Eric Lingard
Phillip B. Eaton (P.B. Eaton)
E.E. Williams (Elijah E. Williams)
Edward H. Howard
Edward H. Shields

I must admit, I’ve been successful at finding an image of Lingard and have temporary screen grabs of Howard and Shields, but I’ve had a heck of a time finding a library/archive, which houses head shots/portraits. Since they were naval aviators, I wanted to check this forum to see if anyone had any ideas.

I will try to check back here, but please reach out to me directly (too) if you can help – [email]jklim007@yahoo.com[/email].

I appreciate any assistance you can provide. Thank you.

Sincerely,

Jake Klim
