Description
Historically, man has a long history of decorating war machines, and it continued in the 20th century. The aircraft decoration, which became known as "Nose Art" , reached its golden age during World War II. This art made the aircraft easier to identify, provided the plane with a personality; it became an entity. The art was allowed because it provided a boost in the morale of the crew, and the aircraft and its crew was easily and immediately identified when they returned from a mission safely.
