Honoring Past and Present.
September 23, 2007
Every year I try to go to Airventure in Oshkosh Wisconsin. For those who have never heard of Airventure, it is basically our national airshow. Airventure is the annual fly-in convention of the Experimental Aircraft Association. It seems that every year Airventure is better than the last. This year was no exception. While there are new aircraft, parts and the like, Airventure also pays tribute to those who have come before us. With aircraft from almost every year and manufacturer ans well as experimental aircraft of every shape and size, there is something for everyone.
One special time during Ariventure is the airshow. And while I was never in the armed services for our great country, I respect those who serve and have served more than I ever have. As a tribute to our armed services and the freedoms we enjoy due to their sacrifice, I wish to say thanks. Thank you to Robert Schwabik, and Joseph Daugird, two heroes who are no longer with us. And thank you to everyone else for your sacrifice.
