    Biak sends in his second card from the National Museum of the U. S. Air Force. This is a nice depiction of the recreated 8th Air Force WWII control tower at the museum. The card evidently took a beating on the way, and the successful arrival adds Ohio to the list of US states to our roster.

    @Biak Sorry for the long delay on this one! I collected your card as I was on the way to the airport for an international trip, and it got lost in my luggage and paperwork until just a few hours ago. I'm really quite happy to have it up in its rightful place.

    So in other words, It's a well traveled postcard. Hopefully those were air travel miles!

    Too bad the tower on the postcard did not have a number.
