But also I just wanted to say thank you to the El Paso Museum of History for uploading this picture. Also, if anyone else has pictures from the Blue Angels team from 1955, I'd love to see them.

The pilot on the far right's name is actually spelled Rutty, not Ruddy. It's pronounced nearly the same, though, so it's understandably misspelled a lot. I've been looking online for mentions of his name, and I'd almost given up when I stumbled upon this page. While I’ve found some of his service record, this is the first picture I've found where he's clearly identified. Before this I'd never seen a picture of my grandfather, even though I've had his name since I was born. It's a strange thing to process
