These old buckets took American children to war. A lot of them survived damage that would've been the death knoll for other aircraft. I get goosebumps when I hear one flying overhead when the Collings Foundation comes to town.

Lots of great photos. The Space Shuttle one tugs at my heart because I loved it so much growing up.
