I guess this may be an obvious question, but besides Geneseo, what are some possible locations or groups that might have interest in such a gathering, good location for folks from other places to come, and the means to pull it off?

Hey Ryan!

How about a Warbirds over Randolph? I know it's not a navy town...but just think of a flight of Cats zooming over the Taj?

(Or at least a mass trainer gathering at the old field? Several hundred PT's Bt's and AT's ? )

Could it possibly be anywhere else but on Long Island!
Real "Homecomings" usually should happen at "home".

As Nathan mentioned... perhaps Geneseo will see a good number this year. If anyone wants to volunteer, I am gathering names, addresses, phone numbers, and emails on any and all Navy WWII (or immediate post-WWII) types flying in the US for the show organizer (who is computerphobic) -- so any and all ya'll have, please email or PM them my way!

Here is a question for you. What U.S. WW2 fighter aircraft had the most Medal Of Honor winners. Hint, it's a Grumman product called a Wildcat.
