America 250 - Episode 14

Vermont

This week we visit Vermont! You can’t discuss airpower in that part of New England without reflecting upon the contributions of the Green Mountain Boys. First formed in 1946, the Vermont Air National Guard plays a critical role at home and abroad with their F-35s. In the space domain, we also highlight key industry players that have a long history of supporting the nation’s space endeavors.
