Media data and Non-free use rationale
Description	Photograph of US Air Force pilot Thomas M McLaughlin
Author or copyright owner	US Air Force

Date of publication	Unknown
Use in article (WP:NFCC#7)	Thomas M. McLaughlin
Purpose of use in article (WP:NFCC#8)	for visual identification of the person in question, at the top of their biographical article
Not replaceable with free media because (WP:NFCC#1)	McLaughlin is dead, there are no other images of him that I could locate that are not equally-likely to be covered by copyright. There are no contact details for relatives who might be willing to release a photo.
Minimal use (WP:NFCC#3)	low-resolution image, only used in connection with the article about the subject
Respect for commercial opportunities (WP:NFCC#2)	This is a low-resolution clipping from a larger image, it is black-and-white.
Other information	The subject of the photograph has been deceased since: 7 December 2010 I strongly suspect this is a PD image as it very much appears to be taken by US Air Force personnel as part of their duties, but nothing says so explicitly.
