My great uncle, James (Jim) Ihli was a Dustoff Pilot during The Vietnam War from 1967-1969.
Sadly, Uncle Jim passed away in 2010. His siblings and
spouses decided to donate his military memorabilia to the museum. My Dad took
up a collection from all the nieces and nephews and a display case was
purchased. It is really neat to see his belongings and photos among many other
men and women who also served in our military.
This is a photo of Uncle Jim at his high school
graduation. Wasn't he handsome!
The Warhawk Air Museum has a plethora of things to see.
There are lots of other display cases with items to view and also planes and
cars. The antique cars are my favorite part! Well, that and visiting Uncle Jim.
This is an old dentist chair. Would you want your mouth
drilled by the hand drill? Not me!!
This is a wedding dress sewn from a parachute. My Mom knows
the bride and groom.
