WW2 Vets Gather At Eppley Airfield

(Omaha, NE)  --  A gathering of World War Two veterans took place at Eppley Field Saturday.  Eight veterans, all in their 90s, visited the airfield to see some of the historic planes that they themselves flew during combat.  The group included the 487th bomb group, which led the biggest air raid during the second World War.  Robert Holts, Nebraska's last known living Tuskegee airman, was also a part of the gathering.
