Capt. Spanky's off-leash tour Published Oct. 29, 2014 By Capt. Spanky 86th Airlift Wing Public Affairs RAMSTEIN AIR BASE, Germany -- Hello all! I've got some exciting news! As some of you know, the 70th anniversary of D-Day is just around the corner, on June 6. There is a large number of events coming up, and I've been thrown a bone. I've been invited to help keep everyone informed. It's time for this puppy to get out of the doghouse and into the cockpit! Now, I don't have my paws on all the details yet, but there will be several amazing things happening here at Ramstein and in Normandy that I've been invited to cover. There will be historical equipment and historical people, including a few World War II veterans to tell their story. The chance to hear the first-hand accounts of these brave veterans is not something to throw a stick at. This is a once in a lifetime chance. Anyway, as soon as they throw out the information, I will fetch it for you, so stay on my heels. I've tracked down a few events that will take place on Ramstein.
