Coming together is a beginning; keeping together is progress; working together is success. - Edward Everett Hale We are pleased to announce that the #TotalForcePartners commemorative painting arrived safely in West Virginia last night.
West Virginia State Police escorted the Ohio Wing relay team to the Wheeling-Ohio County Airport. After a bit of package and equipment shuffle, and the tradition of taking more pictures than God has whiskers, WV-049 treated their guests to a light reception. The picture will overnight at the squadron HQ before beginning its second (and only) leg through West Virginia to Pennsylvania at noon. Wheeling Composite wishes to thank Lt Col James Himes and the Ohio Wing relay team members for volunteering their time and talents to transport the painting across OH; the West Virginia State Police for taking time out of their busy schedule to assist us; Ms Kathryn Ghion of WTRF-7 for graciously agreeing to broadcast our event on the evening news; Ms Heather Ziegler for her reporting efforts on behalf of The Intelligencer. We also gratefully acknowledge 1LT J.R. Ewing and SM Karin Ewing for their help in procuring the escort, media coverage, and refreshments. Thank you to all our helpful members and their families for their efforts to help us set up, store the van's 3rd row seating, and taking photographs to commemorate the event. We appreciate you. And finally, we all wish to thank Wing/CC Col Paul McCroskey for "Country Roads". Capt Toni Wheeler SQ/CC Wheeling Composite Squadron WTRF Article: Civil Air Patrol transporting commemorative painting across the U.S.
