Did you know historic Kalamazoo icons like Gibson Guitar and Shakespeares played a role in building this glider in WWII? Air Zoo docent, David Baker, talks about this Michigan* made aircraft and the role it played on D-Day.

*Please note that the Ford Motor Company plant was located in Kingsford, Michigan, not Ironwood.
