Joe, you mentioned the Wright-Patterson Air Force Museum. I love that place. I am a huge fan of WWII aircraft. So much there to see. And it’s free!

Bill,

The fully-restored "Memphis Belle" went on permanent display in May. You and Donna should consider coming to Troy for a stay with me and we can go see the WWII aircraft. I, too, am a fan, particularly the B-24 Liberator (James Stewart flew these).

Joe: we would love too! We saw the Belle there last year. It was quite a thrill! But there is so much to see! Yes, and the B-24 is there. Donna’s uncle was a tail-gunner on a 24 in WWII. I gave his eulogy when he died. Jimmy Stewart is my favorite actor and was such a great man. Have you read the book “Mission”? I’m sure you have!
