[ARC5] Command set installation

[Richard Knoppow]

     The headphones may be possible clue to dating. The round ear pads 
look like the earlier pads used for both the older magnetic type phones 
and the ANBH-1 type. These were supplanted by the oval kind with chamois 
covers. I don't have a date for this but think it must have been around 
1942 or a bit later. However, who knows what equipment may have been 
used because it was available.
     I have been on board both the B-17 and B-24 that fly around giving 
rides (didn't ride on it). I don't know if these were modified but are 
almost completely devoid of creature comforts. Just visiting will give 
you some idea of what it must have been like to fly dozens of missions 
in these things with people shooting at you.
