I grew up in Dayton and spent countless hours there over a couple decades.
There is ALWAYS more to see. WW-1 pilot's diaries. Notes passed between POWs in Hanoi Hilton. Auschwitz prison uniforms. Personal notes of Orville Wright.
Look for details. The little dark corners holding the small glass displays under the wing of a B-29. It's the details that set the USAF museum apart from any other....including the Smithsonian. Oh...and the B-29....it's Bock's Car.
