Over Houston Media Day – Clear Lake
Capt. A.J. High a B25 pilot in the Aleutian Islands and Col. Joe McPhail,
a member of the “Death Rattlers” a Marine Fighting squadron in 1945 are
both WWII Veterans and heroes. Both are a part of the Wings Over Houston
airshow coming up on October 31 and November 1.
The Wings Over Houston
Airshow is a production of the Commemorative Air Force’s Gulf Coast Wing
and West Houston Squadron with strong support from the Lone Star Flight
Museum, in Galveston. A special treat, this year, to celebrate the 25th
anniversary of Wings will be the Blue Angels. Listen in as Capt. High
and Col. McPhail tell Talk of the Bay a little bit about their careers
and General Patton, strongly encourages everyone to attend this special
silver anniversary of Wings Over Houston.
