Sketch of Frank Luke

During World War I, Penrose Stout, who later became a notable architect, maintained a sketchbook detailing his time in the 27th Aero Squadron, with sketches of aircraft, air combat, daily life in the military, and fellow pilots and crewmen. This sketch depicts the pilot Frank Luke, who later died in combat after crash landing and was the only American pilot to be awarded the Medal of Honor.
