Event Description:
As part of its salute to veterans during the entire month of June, the Museum of Aviation is offering veterans and their guests a tour of Robins Air Force Base on Wednesday, June 18. The tour will include a close-up look at the aircraft and major operational units at the base and an opportunity to have lunch with base personnel.
''The tour is being offered to give our veterans an update on the important mission of Robins Air Force Base.'' Said Bob Dubiel, Director of Marketing. ''We're honoring veterans all during June with this tour, a new WWII hangar opening ceremony on June 6, an open house on June 14, daily discounts in our gift shop and café, and a drawing for prizes on June 30.''
The tour will begin at 9:00 am in the Eagle Building Robert L. Scott Theater and conclude with a lunch with base personnel at the Robins AFB Horizons Club. The tour is free to any veteran and one guest except for the pay-as-you-go lunch. Buses will return to the Museum at 1:00 pm.
Veterans must present a DD Form 214 (Statement of Service) or retired ID card to get on the tour and vouch for their guest. Reservations are limited to the first 40 people that sign up. To make a reservation for the tour call the Museum of Aviation at (478) 926-6870.
