    INDEPENDENCE 08 Memorial @ Beale AFB

    in Memories

    In the spring of 2015, members of the 306th Intelligence Squadron and 427th Reconnaissance Squadron from Beale AFB, California came together to create an enduring monument in memory of the INDEPENDENCE 08 crew. Families and friends of our fallen heroes were invited to attend the dedication ceremony which also included the renaming of the base theater on 27 April 2015. However, due to shipping delays the dedication ceremony was postponed for a couple months impacting travel for several family members including myself. After 6 1/2 years I finally had an opportunity to visit the memorial in person while on a TDY to Beale AFB in last week (26 October 2021).
