I returned yesterday from a trip to San Antonio, Texas to visit my wife's sister and her newly expanded family. Stacy and Mike are the proud parents of twins. After a very long wait for the Lord's timing, they finally have the children that they have wanted for so long. Ian and Jillian are beautiful babies and they couldn't have better parents!
While on my trip, I had the opportunity to visit Randolph Air Force Base. To my great surprise, I found that the legacy of the Tuskegee Airmen lives on in the 99th Flying Training Squadron. For information on this distinguished group of airmen, visit the RAFB website. As a fitting tribute to these gallant African-American pilots, the 99th Flying Training Squadron maintains a museum exhibit in the halls of the squadron offices. I found the fact that the 99th lives on to be a fine way of recognizing the history of the squadron. Today's 99th even sports the characteristic red tail of the legendary Tuskegee Airmen. Thanks to the U.S. Airforce for their pride in their heritage. In the photo above left, a T-1A Jayhawk flies over downtown San Antonio. The aircraft is assigned to the 99th Flying Training Squadron at Randolph Air Force Base, Texas. (U.S. Air Force photo/Lt. Col. Russell Hopkinson)
Classes at BHS have been on Spring Break and we return to classes on Monday. I hope everyone has had a relaxing break. As for me, I did.
