August 1943 75th anniversary of Battle of Sicily. Maybe a ground reenactment of that and some of the aircraft used?

There were also some heavy B-17 raids in Germany in 1943, maybe time for another gathering of B-17s?

Hard to believe that this will be the 20th year ... time flies. The first time I went to this show, it was called "Salute to Freedom." I've been to this show 13 years now. I'll be following this thread closely to see if a 14th trip will be in the works.

Here's hoping for a banner year with a lot of warbirds.

Looking forward to hearing some updates now that the ICAS convention has taken place and the new year is here! I did see Sean D. Tucker has Thunder on his schedule, per a post on his Facebook page.

Any updates? Usually by Mid February there is usually a short list of warbirds announced. All I see so far is the Thunderbirds and someone mentioned Sean Tucker.

I am also a little concerned about the lack of updates on aircraft at this point compared to most other years.
