The USS North Carolina (BB-55) My all-time favorite warship. As an elementary school student in North Carolina, I donated nickels and dimes to save this ship back in the early sixties.

Northern Illinois State Teachers College in DeKalb Gets a North American AT-6

From the March 8, 2022 MidWeek "Looking Back" (DeKalb County, Illinois).

1947, 75 years ago.

"A North American AT-6 used by the Army as a training plane has been purchased by the Northern Illinois State Teachers college for instruction purposes.

"The plane was flown here from Oklahoma and is at Taylor  airport where it will be  partially dismantled.  Sold at a low figure to  educational organizations, the plane cannot be used for  flying purposes."
