My deafness was caused by years of B-52 engines, then years of steel shop work, followed by years of power plant operations.
And I wore hearing protection!
My SIL is working on the B52 re-power program.
We spent quite a bit of time at the Dayton Air Show looking at the one on display.
I know it’s popular to trash the military these days but I was impressed by the men and women who accompanied the plane.
