BRIAN MILLER COLLECTION-ABOUT THE COLLECTOR

Brian Miller is a retired West Coast LAMPS (SH-60B) pilot that became fascinated with the history of Naval Aviation, especially North Island. It all started by accident more than ten years ago when he came across a 100 year old picture of a forgotten San Diego aviation pioneer named Charles F. Walsh. This was his first purchase of a collection that has grown steadily ever since. Everything in his collection was purchased off the Internet. Many were candid photographs taken by amateurs and sold as part of an estate sale without much description. Some pictures of the collection  are from the estate of Joe Rullo (helicopter pilot #17). They are all part of a growing collection that spans the 108 year history of Naval Aviation/North Island to include the evolution of the HSL/HSM community.
