Hi all, I'm making sure that I know how to do this so that when Hannah comes I can post pictures, etc. until Marie gets back from the hospital. We're just waiting at this point. Fortunately the weather has been cool this weekend so she isn't nine months pregnant and miserable from the heat. We are also fortunate to have a/c just in case it does get hot.
While we were in Sidney, OH a few weekends ago we made a side trip to the US Air Force Museum at Wright-Patterson AFB. This jet, 66-0177, was the last flying C-141 and was retired in May, 2006. At the end of the Viet Nam war it was the first jet to land in Hanoi to recover our POW's. As a reservist I actually got to work on this very jet. I know the faces to match the names stenciled on the side. I flew with it on a trip up to Thule AB, in Greenland. Now it's in a museum... Surreal.
