A wreath laying ceremony to honor Veteran’s Day at the Aerospace Museum of California<\/a>\u00a0near Sacramento. \u00a0We arrived a little early and looked around a bit. \u00a0They had a flight simulator that the boys and I went on. \u00a0It highlighted many different fighter planes over the years.<\/p>\n

The wreath laying service had a few speakers. \u00a0They had such a large turnout, they added more chairs, and it was still standing room! I am glad he boys got to experience this.

After the service, we went to the back to see planes! \u00a0There were a bunch of wonderful docents who shares their knowledge. \u00a0They were all retired veterans, and enjoyed speaking with the boys.<\/p>\n

This plane flew in WW2, then was sold to a commercial airline. \u00a0The airline then sold it to a private owner, who turned it into a drug running plane. \u00a0It was confiscated by the DEA and was donated to the museum.\"IMG_4330\"<\/a> \"IMG_4332\"<\/a> \"IMG_4333\"<\/a><\/p>\n

This plane shuttled dignitaries. \u00a0It served as “Air Force 1” for some of California governors.

This wonderful man may or may not have shared how they obtained this Russian mig. \u00a0He also may or may not have shared with us about his time at Area 51, which we all know doesn’t exist…\u00a0\"IMG_4359\"<\/a> \"IMG_4362\"<\/a> \"IMG_4367\"<\/a> \"IMG_4369\"<\/a><\/p>\n
