After several delays and much hem-hauling by the legal folks that had a hard time translating what the Air Force Instruction (AFI) meant to say about historical property and who can do what with the $$$ to build memorials, the base legal and 43rd AW Commander have approved our request to build a memorial for A1C Andre Guillet in front of the Combat Control School. This approval includes site, restoration, and long-term maintenance of the memorial. I have informed the maintenance troops and they are very excited to finally have their leadership's blessing to restore the O-1 Bird Dog.
The next project is deciding what granite stones to use and what will be said on these stones.
