Commonly referred to as the "Boneyard," the 309th Aerospace Maintenance and Regeneration Group at Davis-Monthan Air Force Base, Ariz., contains about 5,000 retired military aircraft throughout 2,600 acres. Crews at the Boneyard preserve aircraft for possible future use, pull aircraft parts to supply to the field, and perform depot-level maintenance and aircraft regeneration in support of Air Force operations.

Can anyone tell me the music used in the background?

Beautiful video. A lot of emotion can be felt in it.

We license the music through the Killer Tracks library. The music for this piece was created by Anthony Phillips.

Thanks for watching and the kind words.

Amazing.

[TL Robinson]

Awesome job on the video!

[TransitioningVeteran]

Such an incredible video. I have watched this numerous times and shared it with all who follow Transitioning veteran.com. Many will look at this Boneyard as nothing more than just scrap planes waiting to be broken down, but to many who have flown these planes, this is a place that will keep their stories and history alive. Awesome work, love it. -Steve (Veteran and Founder)
