These living history days are an opportunity to show off their selection of rare WWII Warbirds. With the very rare SBD-5 Dauntless "Lady in Blue" showcasing the day. This "Lady in Blue" took off and made some really nice passes while the fans watched. Also; on hand were the P-51 "Red Nose", Lt-6 "Mosquito", PT-26 "Cornell", and C-45 Expeditor "Bucket of Bolts". Other aircraft in attendance was the beautiful F4U Corsair, Jack Van Ness's Zero replica, and a T-6 Texan was on hand. The crowd was huge but they still had a chance to talk with the pilots and enjoyed those old warbirds. A large part of the “2010 Dixie Wing WWII Heritage Day” was the fantastic WWII reenactments. A mock European battle between the Axis and Allied troops, took place in a small town shortly after D-Day. Later a battle between American marines and the Japanese troops took place on a mock island in the pacific. Walking around during the day young and old had a chance to talk and shake hands with Gen. MacArthur, German officers, and men and women dressed the era's uniforms and clothing. When it was chow time the mess desks supplied hamburgers, hotdogs, soft drinks and the highly requested "Spam Burger". This two day event is a great way to teach the kids what the past was like. Col. Jim Buckley, Wing Leader, Dixie Wing CAF, his staff, all the reenactors and volunteers do a great job making this living history day a success. Next year bring the kids and camp out for the day, you will have a great time. story an photos by Carl Wilcox
