An article in the Wichita Eagle Newspaper this morning. Kansas National Guard will donate space in their B-1 Hangar to store DOC. This will get the B-29 inside out of the Weather. Finally something good news to Help Save DOC.

The Air Force won't be able to resist warbirds of that magnitude

How can we complain or poke fun at the USAF when they are atleast trying to help, and then expect them to do it again :?:

There is a big difference between the Air Guard and the USAF! The Guard doesn't have a museum trying to steal planes that I know of.

OK we won't go down that road, but still the Guard is a long way from the USAF. An arm of the State etc.
