Today In Military/Aviation History 16 - 22 March from Warbirds Online by Tom Kwiatkowski Sr.
Hello Folks, it’s that little old history poster, me! Yep, yet another week done and gone. This weekend is a rather special time for the 1941 Historical Aircraft Group Museum in Geneseo N.Y. (I moderate their Website Message Board) The Museum has acquired a B-23 Dragon that is now with The CAF in Midland Texas. Five of our Folks are now down there disassembling the aircraft and preparing it for transit to Geneseo. If you’re interested, there are two sources for updates on this project. The Message Board I moderate, or WIX in the WIX hangar. The WIX post has the CAF update with photos and I have also posted the HAG updates in a separate post. Stop by either of these sites and check it out. Now, let’s get down to some serious history, shall we? Have an AB FAN week, Take Care and Be Safe, Tom K.
