    We Got Shirts!

    By CaptJeff,

    We have new uniform shirts to wear for the Classic. Apparently my nephew Tyler would not wear his uniform shirt because it said Ground Crew on it.
     
    He received his pilots certificate last fall. Wont he be surprised when we show up with a whole new set of shirts for him that say Capt. Tyler Thompson... We also got his soon to be wife a set that say Crew Chief. Can not wait to present him with them.

    More later.
