Memories On The Oshkosh Bricks

Since 1971 the Brown Arch has been a landmark on the Experimental Aircraft Association grounds at Oshkosh, initially as the entry point to the annual EAA fly-in and now a favourite meeting point at AirVenture.
In front of the arch is a paved area of 3,000 bricks available for paid inscriptions, quarter, half or whole brick. The 70 years of memories across generations makes for fascinating reading and it can be hard to stop browsing the memories of long ago summers and tributes to absent family, friends and heroes. And, the odd mystery.

Great loss

This one drew me back every year - what did happen that Sunday at Mingo Junction?
