A Army Air Force officer stands on a hoist near the cockpit of a B-29 bomber paints a picture on it. Picture of a baby wearing boxing gloves. Officer paints the baby's diaper with white paint. Soldier looks at nose art painting on the B-29 nose with written wording "Deaner Boy" on it. Another soldier walks up and looks at the nose art painting. (Note: Painter might be Lieutenant Dean C. Forburger, based on examination of image reflected back from aircraft body. Forburger was a B-29 pilot stationed at Tinian at the time, and images exist of him standing beneath this nose art. Forburger was not a member of the crew on Deaner Boy when it perished in a mid-air collision accident in February 1945. The Deaner Boy nose art was painted at least twice on this aircraft, as there are also other images of it in existence with a side-facing baby and cursive lettering for "Deaner Boy").
