Wow

We visited The place on a Quick drive inn on a Quick weekend get away.nThe day was clouded and a bit grey,nThe place was empty I think because of covid, the restrooms where also closed.nnThe core of the memorial consists of three tall towers of steel-plated concrete; the tallest of the three towers is 270 feet high. It’s intended to evoke one of the signature moves of the Air Force Thunderbirds, known as the bomb burst maneuver, as well as the traditional “missing man” formation often used at Air Force funeral flyovers where one plane peels off from the others. At their base, off to one side, are four bronze statues titled Air Force Honor Guard.

Beautifully scrapted sculpture with a lot more to see then just the spires.nAlso brings amazing views.
