[Oyster operations, ca. 1955 ; air base ; miscellany]

Footage. First half of film shows a crew working around a pile of oyster shells, and preparing them to be hung submerged from a raft for oyster propagation. The locale is probably one of the oyster harvesting areas on east coast of Vancouver Island. Remainder of footage is mixed, including shots of U.S. Air Force Globemaster cargo plane and a Pan American Airways airliner (named "Clipper Monarch of the Skies") being serviced at an unidentified airfield. Also brief scenes of an abandoned coastal gun emplacement and the bow of a wrecked ship off a beach. This latter part of the reel may have been shot in California or Hawaii.
