More sites in the Southwest

VFW Magazine, Nov, 2003 by Gary Lafond

"Sharing the Martial Heritage of the Southwest" (September) omitted several sites in Arizona. Prime among them is the Pima Air & Space Museum in Tucson. Its expansive outdoor and indoor displays make it one of the largest private aviation museums in the world. Also in the area are the Titan II Missile Museum and the "Desert Boneyard" at Davis-Monthan AFB.
