At the moment, the bomber is dissected. That's not good enough. At the Smithsonian's Silver Hill facility, amid undisplayed artifacts, Enola Gay receives a rare visit from an Air Force staff sergeant. D.C. The facility is sure to be a stellar one, and an accommodating home for big beasts like an SR-71, a space shuttle and Enola Gay . Unfortunately, that project's fruition lies in the next century.
Time is merciless.
The vets want to see the completed airplane again, see the machine that helped bring an end to the war and gave them all another 50 years of life. They deserve that last look.
