Great shot of the B-17!!!! My Grandfather was a tail gunner during WWII on a B-17 and those are some awesome old warbirds.

Wow! great shot along with your others. I caught the F-15 demo earlier in the year, one of the best performances by far. Makes you damn proud to be an American.

Some shots from the Andrews Air Force Base Joint Services Open House in May, 2010. Yes, I know it's August, but better late than never.

Imagine being the pilot of that C-47 and reading the accounts later of what happened to the troops that landed in St Mere Eglise. We all know they had a job to do and under extremely hostile conditions, but they must have felt the same sense of "I'm responsible for these guys making their target safely" that we have of our crews on the fire ground.
