The prototype XOJ-1 (A8359) is seen at NAS Anacostia. Note the machine gun mounted in the upper wing. The hangars of the Air Corps’ Bolling Field are in the background. It was not unusual at the time for the Army and Navy to share runways but to have distinctive and separate portions of the airfield. Those days are over; today, the 100-year-old facilities are known as Joint Base Anacostia-Bolling.
Two views of an immaculate OJ-2 (A9196) at Boeing Field. Aircraft was assigned to Naval Air Reserve Base Seattle just a few miles up the road.

Interesting yet tragic story. It makes one wonder if the OJ aircraft involved in the mishap is the one pictured.
Thank you much for adding this history.
