A Rear Admiral steps from a doorway, resplendent in special full dress uniform, complete with cocked hat and special embroidered rank insignia on his sleeve. The uniform appears to be European (not American). The scene is repeated in a second take. A French aviator, in leather jacket, walks in front of an early French bi-wing headless pusher airplane parked in an open hangar. (Unlike a Curtiss headless pusher aircraft, this one does not have tricycle landing gear.) He bends to greet a little girl who walks to meet him with a woman, the girl's mother. The three pose for the camera. Next scene shows U.S. Navy Vice Admiral Richard H. Jackson (Commander Battleship Divisions Battle Fleet, 1925-1926). He steps from a building followed by Naval officers. Jackson converses with a young Navy Captain, as others relax behind them. . Closeup of Admiral Jackson and the Captain. The group moves away. Next, a fairly young U.S. Navy Rear Admiral (unidentified) is seen in front of a long, wide, set of granite steps, shaking hands with a Navy Petty officer. They engage in conversation and then the Petty Officer leaves, followed by the Admiral. Next, is seen the entrance to a building numbered 22, that has U.S. Navy signs in its windows. A U.S. Navy Rear Admiral (unidentified) exits the building, accompanied by a Commander and a Lieutenant Commander. The weather is cold enough to show visible moisture from their breath. The three share entertaining conversation, including smiles and laughs.
