MID-ATLANTIC AIR MUSEUM'S WORLD WAR II
WEEKEND
2010 SPECIAL GUEST LIST The list of this year's Special Guests has been updated, and I'm sure you will agree that, once again, we are extremely fortunate and honored to have many famous veterans attending the 20th Anniversary World War II Weekend. Many of our guests will be speaking during the show, sharing their wartime experiences. Talk about "living history" - this is the real McCoy, and the heart of WWII Weekend. Schedules will be posted at each speakers' venue at the show. When they are not on stage, many of our Special Guests will be available in the main hangar where you can meet, obtain autographs and photos, and in some cases, books by and about them. The roster of guests is not yet complete, but as plans are firmed up and other veterans are added, the the page will be updated. As always, the bomb link on the right will take you straight to all the straight skinny. THANKS FOR THE MEMORIES Award-winning entertainer Lynn "Win" Roberts will be performing this year as Bob Hope in the "Bob Hope Road Show" with guest stars including Jack Benny, Red Skelton, Jimmy Durante, Crazy Guggenheim, W.C. Fields, and Benny Goodman. Each show is a visit to a 1940's broadcast on NBC, complete with Chuck Carson as the on-stage announcer. Every show will be different, so ask your C.O. for a three-day pass and catch all of them! ATTENTION ON THE FIELD: MAKE ROOM FOR THE BLACK WIDOW! For the first time at the show, the P-61 Black Widow will be rolled out of the hangar and put on display on the ramp. Furthermore, her finished tail booms will be attached. So show-goers will be able to get a 360 degree look at this incredible, extremely rare bird and all the progress that has been made on her restoration since last year. While you are at it, take the opportunity to join the Black Widow Restoration Support Team with your donations and purchases of official MAAM P-61 apparel and souvenirs. MAAM IS NOW ON FACEBOOK! We now have an official Mid-Atlantic Air Museum Facebook page! Please check it out and become a fan, then invite all your friends to do the same. You are welcome to post your own past WWII Weekend photos and videos on the page, too. Pass it on, buddy! 2010 AIR SHOW ROSTER IS POSTED!
