Joe,
First I love Me wall that I saw was in the US in '65. I will name names.
It belonged to a Maj Harry Bendorf and it epitomised everything that was different between an American and an Englishman.
Can you imagine hanging a photograph of self plus Glenn Torpy "To Joe kindest regards, Glenn" and sundry others? Yes, he had one from CinC SAC and possibly politicians too.
I named him not because it was so long ago but that he was a great bloke actually not too different from Gus. He rose to become Inspector General of the Air Force.
