Veterans Honored in Monroe, Louisiana's Chennault Avation Museum 11/06/10

With the traveling Vietnam memorial wall being  a vivid reminder of the sacrifices made on our behalf, thousands of people gathered to pay tribute to veterans (past and present) at Chinnault Avation Museum in Monroe, Louisiana.

Here are some pictures I took Saturday, 6 Nov 10.

Commo room inside museum.  I used a teletype very much like this one.  This is a TT-74 I think.  I used a TT-76

Another Boneyard peice.  You could walk up and touch it if desired.

This is a pretty big bird.  The Nose is like 20 feet high.  There's a picture of a starving horse with some grass hanging from it's mouth drawn on the nose, on the other side.
