Peterson Air & Space Museum is probably the best place in the US to be the home of the Air Defense Galaxy of Stars. Colorado Springs has been the home of ADC from beginning to end during the Cold War. From Ed Weaver CMSGT USAF Ret Secretary/Treasurer Peterson Air & Space Museum Foundation: Ron McClelland has been working to create a web site for a project Jack McKinney came up with-Galaxy of Stars. The fruits of their labor can be viewed by going to the Museum's home page www.petemuseum.org and click on "GALAXY OF STARS"....or you can go directly to the site at www.galaxyofstars.org . Thanks also to Erv Smalley for working with Ron in stepping thru the requirements to create the new site using the Foundation's current site. - Ed I think we may have 1 or 2 guys around here who were once with ADC Go check out this page and see what it takes to become one of the stars. The Old Sarge said he was going to sign up if he could find an old picture in uniform taken back when he was prettier. I told him they didn't make cameras that far back in history. Be sure and sign the guest book while you are there! Pat P.

This is an impressive display of American History. Thanks goes to all you helped make this possible. I was looking at F-106 59-134. Wasn't it at Fresno back in the 1990's. I was doing some work in the Fresno area, when all of a sudden I see planes. It was 103 degrees but I had to take a look at the 106. At a later date, I took my wife on one of the business trips and showed her the six. I probably spend more time being wrong than I do being right, but I think it was 134 we were looking at. In any event, 134 looks outstanding at Peterson. Burt : :salute
