Living (and flying!) History at Dayton

Third Army living historian Wayne Coulter visited Dayton, Ohio for the yearly air show, bringing with him a full display of weapons, equipment, and other delicious goodies.

The Dayton Air Show always draws a huge crowd, and the displays- in the air and on the ground- are spectacular.  The air show includes demonstrations and displays from civilian and military worlds, both past and present.  Wayne was there to make sure the past was represented properly, and if I know Wayne, he did it with style (read: aviator sunglasses).

The weekend went well, and the display was in good hands.  Which is good, because Wayne's display is a cut above.  Wayne has always been known for adding those extra items that bring something different to the table- as we all try to do. 


And as always, one of the greatest pleasures of WWII living history is meeting veterans, which is always an honor.


All in all, it was a successful event for this particular MP and for 3rd Army.

Catch you next time, G.I.
