Thanks to the many volunteers
The creation of the museum wouldn't be possible without the many hours donated by a wonderful group of dedicated volunteers. If you also feel you have time and talent that could help us bring the museum to fruition, please contact me personally.

was one of 10,000 US Air Corp Aviation Cadets washed out in May 1945 when Congress
decided to eliminate primary training for all cadets; he ended up in

never wanes and my association with Hans and his Museum is a privilege and a
labor of love."
