The Junkers W33 D-1167 Bremen made the first successful non-stop transatlantic flight from east to west on 12-13 April 1928, landing on Greenly lsland, Quebec. Lt Richard Cobb flew this US Army Loening trying to help. Cobb was acting on the orders of, and sometimes transporting, Gen Brown of the Army's 1st Corps Area, headquartered in Boston. Thus the winged 1 emblem, also seen in photo 640547, may be related to the 1st Corps Area.
