World War II

I have learned over the years that the old saying that those who fail to learn from history are doomed to repeat it. That's why it would be good for many to look back on what life was like in a small Illinois town near the end of World War II.

Thanks to a new movie, atomic bomb history is now back at the forefront of conversation. Did you know that you can still see a part of Oppenheimer's atomic bomb which is on display in Missouri?

If you are fortunate enough to get to peek inside of a certain barn in Marengo, Illinois, you'll notice there's a big project underway. A guy has spent years working on restoring a World War 2-era B-17 Bomber inside.
