Last Sunday - Tuesday Marie and I took a break from our jobs and when to see Will and Risa, our best friends in Omaha, Ne. We stayed on base in visiting quarters at Offutt.
B-17F "Homesick Angel"
This B-17 stands guard near one of the entrances to the base.
This plaque describes the components that make up the defense triad and also tells about the transition from SAC to Stratcom.
Display in front of Stratcom.
Recently, a friend at work, Dean Spirkoff, made me a model of dad's B-17G "Miss Cue". Dean has made several models over the years as a hobby. His favorite model to make is the F-4 Phantom. Dean took several pictures during the construction of this B-17 detailing each position inside the plane. I have them in a notebook that he gave me.
This is the view from our room. We were right on the golf course #1 tee.
