    Thank you for posting your question on History Hub!

    The Still Picture Branch does not have collections of portraits/headshots, group photos, or yearbooks created during basic training. According to the military, graduates’ formal photos, both individual and group as well as yearbooks, were created by private local commercial photographers/companies and offered for sale at the time taken. Unfortunately, those items rarely became part of official military records nor were they retained by the commercial photographers responsible for shooting the photos. We do have many candid photos of U.S. military personnel but many of them do not provide identification for the people shown.

    The records most related to your request is 342-Z: Personality Index to Black and White and Color Negatives, Slides, and Transparencies of U.S. Air Force Activities, Facilities, and Personnel, ca. 1942–ca. 1980, which is a name index organized by last name for candid Air Force photographs within our holdings. We conducted a search for Master Sergeant Fred D. Long, however, we unfortunately were unable to locate any images.

    For more information regarding our holdings, we invite you to explore our website, https://www.archives.gov/research/still-pictures/military-personnel-photographs. Our website organizes our records by the different branches of the U.S. military, thereunder organized by time period. Please use the links on the right of the page to navigate throughout the webpage.

    We invite you to continue the conversation with community members on History Hub, but should you have follow up questions for the staff at Archives II, please email us at stillpix@nara.gov so that we can assist you further.

    We hope this assists you with your research!


    Sincerely,
    Still Picture Branch
