Some days you just never know...

As promised, Roy stopped by yesterday. He had 2 pictures and said he has lots more but hasn't located them yet. He showed me his NAVY Gunnery school diploma and Aviation Machinist's mate certificate. He also indicated he knows how to do fabric work and did it in the navy, SO looks like he will be doing a cameo apperance when it comes time to cover the control surfaces. He can't wait!

And that's the point of all this right? Preserving history to honor our past and our heroes.

Great story!
