Last weekend, I flew in/out of the Milwaukee airport for Barbara Vey's Reader Appreciation Luncheon (link, link, and link). I realized upon arrival the airport is named for Milwaukee's own General Mitchell, Army Air Corps.
I peeked into the Mitchell Gallery of flight ...
... and noticed the conference room dedicated to another Milwaukee hero, Air Force Captain Lance Sijan, who posthumously received the Medal of Honor for his courage in Vietnam.
The airport was modern structure with nostalgic touches ...
... including a used book store ...
... where I bought a book about General Mitchell for my father-in-law.
Do you have a favorite airport? One randomly selected commenter from this week's posts wins a book choice from my convention stash. Comments are open through Saturday, May 3, 10 pm in Baltimore. I'll post the winner on Sunday, May 4, at SOS Aloha (link).
