In a very small town out in the woods of Northest Pennsylvania there is a American Legend that has a "Mace" rocket out on display on a pole. I don't know much on them. Does anyone here know anything about "Mace" rockets? It's about a 25 minute drive from my house, but wondered if anyone here would like me to get some pictures of it? There is also a Huey in my town and a M60 tank. Anyone interested in photos of them to? Scott, could you use these(besides the tank) for the Registry?

Cheers,
Nathan

Look near the bottom of the home page for American Aero Services http://www.americanaeroservices.com/ for a recent restoration of a MACE (includes photos and a video show of the restoration).

More at: http://www.globalsecurity.org/wmd/systems/mace.htm

and: http://www.mace-b.com/38TMW/Missiles/History.htm

Hope this helps!

If you can please send me a few pictures of the Mace and its Translauncher.

The Matador and the Mace were some of the first pilotless bombers and the begining of the "cruise missile" era, the Air Force launched one from a hardstand at the Cape and it ended up in Cuba, there was a bit of explaining with that incident.

There are some neat pictures on our site along with what I think is a great 9 min. video of the restoration.
