Wings of Freedom Tour 2016

Wings of Freedom Tour at Northtexas Regional Airport/Perrin Field

Four of the most famous WWII bomber and fighter aircraft will be flying into Denison Texas as part of the Wings of Freedom Tour 2016.

The Wings of Freedom Tour of the WWII Vintage Boeing B-17 Flying Fortress, Consolidated B-24 Liberator, B-25 Mitchell and North American P-51 Mustang will be on display in Denison at North Texas Regional Airport/Perrin Field from March 28 to March 30.

During World War II, aviation firmly established itself as a critical component of modern warfare. Military investment during WWII accelerated aviation design considerably. The Collings Foundation has recovered and restored many of the true landmark aircraft that built the world aviation history.

In honor of our WWII Veterans  The Collings Foundation’s Wings of Freedom Tour Brings Extremely Rare Bomber and Fighter Aircraft for Local Living History Display as Part of 110-city Nationwide Tour.

Grayson County OEM announcement | 5-31-2015

The flood waters will begin to recede… and then we will begin the flood of paperwork, clean up and repairs to help our community recover.

Soon, a group of officials from our sixteen cities, the County, the State and FEMA, will meet to perform Joint Preliminary Damage Assessments to determine what level of relief will be available to our community.

Because this particular disaster was a series of events that occurred from May 7 through the month, and damage resulted for a myriad of weather related reasons and in locations throughout the County, we are a little worried that we may miss something.

If you have damages or losses, residential or commercial, please make sure you complete a damage assessment including your address via our website reporting form. If you know of someone with no internet access, please help them report using your internet access or have them call 903-813-5245.

We don’t know yet if individuals and businesses will be eligible for any FEMA relief for our community but the first step to finding out is for us to accurately report our damages.

The website report is available on the front page of Grayson County’s website at www.co.grayson.tx.us.

We’d also ask you to help us get the word out by hitting both LIKE & SHARE for this post.

This step is VERY important to make sure we help our community recover from… well, May 2015.
