Still have nieces and nephews in the Dayton and Xenia area. Dang, small world. I agree, the AF museum is a really cool place. next time you're in there, keep an eye out for memorabilia from the 42nd Bomb Wing out of Loring AFB, Maine. Spent 3 years with that unit in the 42nd Security Police Squadron.
Intersetingly enough, the alumni of the 42nd SPS have a reunion group online at MyFamily.com. we call ourselves the Ramp Rats.

Tigermark,
Yes it is a small world, Moraine air park is just about 1/2 mile at most, less by air from me here where I am in Kettering. And I have been to where your at several times, been awhile since I was there last. Have they ever fixed the hill coming into town? Is it still as steep as it used to be? I am from central Kentucky with family still there and in far eastern Ky. when you hit Hazzard you still have another 30 miles to go, miss that country, lived there for a long time, but no work.
That is funny that the 42nd is called the Ramp Rats, my 42 is a nod to Douglas Adams. I will look and see if there is anything when I go out there again, will probably be in the spring next time.
Anyway, time for me to go try and sleep, the sun is coming up and I need to head to bed.
Jacobus
AKA Rat
