I was there in 2000, and the Vietnam memorial behind the B-52 had a huey mounted on top of a platform. The cool thing about that was that the huey was motion activated and had a soundtrack of a helicopter that was quite a distance away. It "came closer" until the sound was right on top of you. I see from your video that the platform is still there, but the huey isn't. Probably a victim of hurricane Katrina!

I'm the girlfriend if the guy that left your first comment. I'm glad you enjoyed the Battleship park. It's one of my favorite places. I've actually been inside the B-52 years ago and sat in my dad's seat in the tail. It was a cool experience.

Thanks for the comment. Yes, it was an experience to be there reliving so much history. You must be proud of your dad and his accomplishments.

My girlfriend's father was actually the tail gunner on the giant B-52D bomber you have several pictures of. It's called the "Calamity Jane". I can't believe you have it in the pictures... Salamat Po!!!!!

Yes... I can't believe, too, someone has been inside that plane and still got to see our photos/video just before the end 2007. Small world. I appreciate your comment. It was also the Philippine teachers' 1st experience outside of New Orleans. I'll relay to them your notes.
