something seriously wrong with these pictures - two different crews yet they have the same crew numbers

The guys in summer uniforms are in the same position (and uniforms) as these guys.

What is also interesting is the propeller positions of the two different uniforms is the same (ground crew is pulling prop #4)

Some of the crew are the same.The guy in the back row middle is the same in both pics.Look at the ray bans and the ears.The front row left guy(officer) is the same guy in both pics as well.Maybe some more.Very strange.Something to do with uniforms so as not to give away when the graduated from the school?Jerry was a smart bastard.

Interesting too, is that in the first picture, it appears that two of the guys in the back row are recycles...both have devices under their wings.
