From Mark Yost, "Review of 'Masters of Disguise,' at the Intrepid: An exhibition of camouflage in nature and in wartime" in the Wall Street Journal (March 18, 2014)—
The Intrepid Sea, Air & Space Museum, the historic aircraft carrier
moored on Manhattan's West Side, could have taken the easy way out for
its latest exhibit on camouflage. It could have pulled photos out of the
archives showing ship camouflage in World War I and II—something most
people are familiar with—found a nook on the main hangar deck to display
them, and been done with it.
What
Eric Boehm,
the museum's curator of aviation and aircraft restoration, did
instead was give visitors a thorough and engaging history of camouflage
in both the natural and the man-made world. >>more>>
