I was also in when our brothers and sisters of the armed forces once again became publicly applauded in society as heroes during/after Desert Storm. It was only 8 1/2 years of my life, but a period I will never forget that has helped shape my life in the civilian world!

Here are a couple of pictures I have taken during our RV travels. They are of aircraft you are familiar with.
The first was taken at the Ellsworth AFB aviation museum near Rapid City, SD. I took the second while driving around at the Davis Monthan AFB at Tucson, AZ.
