Chris, why didn't you stop by the -54!

Kevin, believe it or not we started to come over and see you atleast 3 different times, one time we even had you insight, then something would happen and we'd say Ok let's do that, then we'll go over. I plan on catching up with you this summer. I want to take a tour of the C-54. I have never been in it.

I stopped by twice and you weren't there, or you were up in the airplane giving tours. The C-54 sure dominated the ramp!

I almost got there one time, but the girl dressed as the Marines Dream nose art distracted me.

Here are some of mine,

First off the reason why I missed meeting up with Kevin

Then meeting 7 P-61 pilots and crew members

Zachary and I meeting the Band of Brothers
Don Malarkey

"Buck" Compton

"Babe" Hefron and Bill Gaurnere

Doolittle Raiders R.E. Cole, and David Thatcher

The guys at my table for the dinner/foodfight

Just some of the cool sights

Cool L-5 painted to depict an L-5 that sunk a enemy ship with hand gernades.

Zach was sure that it was the real deal.

But we had a nice long talk. Ha Ha

Good shot of the 51s, Chris. Clean static shots like that are hard to get.

Thanks August. I got lucky with that shot. I took it while waiting in line to meet the Band of Brothers. While we are talking in line I just noticed that there was no one near the Mustangs and snapped off a few shots.

Great pics! I sure would like to go to this show someday.

Was the B-24 panel that Gary Velasco had on display Sweet Routine, or was it a different one?

Having all the the vets on hand to talk to and meet is one thing that makes Reading WW2 Weekend really standout. I do miss going to it
