Nice photo gallery. Good in the field photos too. I prefer seeing this kind of picture over the too-clean and everything strapped correctly shots.

Great find, the last one is particularly interesting as it shows a HAR-1 with both US and USN registration number! USA 4402157 and USN 147000

Pictures were made in 1944, when Port Hueneme on the Southern California coast, was an Advance Base Depot for the US Navy, serving it's Construction Battalions (CB's or "SeaBees") which is why there is lots of construction equipment to be seen in this photo set.
