Historically Speaking: PAX River Cold Warriors

Written By Peter LaPorte on Sunday, May 03, 2020 | 05:17 PM

 
The first in the St Mary's County Historical Society's "Historically Speaking" series of talks, this program was produced in collaboration with the PAX River Naval Air Museum. Told by Bob Tourville, "PAX River's Forgotten Cold Warriors" reveals a part of the Naval Air Station’s history about which few people know. Bob outlines the missions and challenges of PAX River operational squadrons during the Cold War. The accomplishments of these aviators, technicians, and specialists form a nearly forgotten chapter in St Mary’s County and Southern Maryland history.
