NO PLACE LIKE HOME A typical ceramic art studio inside “temporary” building T-6. Of course, the art pieces inside are anything but typical.

FOND MEMORIES Former radar cadet Robert Davey reminisces about his time on the Boca Raton Army Air Field. He’s standing in front of “temporary” building T-6, one of 800 buildings constructed to train Army Air Corps cadets about radar, a crucial piece of technology during World War II. T-6 was once a radar classroom, and Davey believes he had once had class in a building just like this. Photo by Liz Dzuro
