A B-52H Stratofortress takes off after being taken out of long term storage Feb. 13, 2015, at Davis-Monthan Air Force Base, Ariz. The aircraft was decommissioned in 2008 and has spent the last seven years sitting in the “Boneyard,” but was selected to be returned to active status and will eventually rejoin the B-52 fleet. The B-52 was flown by the 309th Aerospace Maintenance and Regeneration Group. (U.S. Air Force photo/Master Sgt. Greg Steele)
This bird is now sitting on the ramp down the street from my house.

That is a really feel-good story, Spc 1 J W.. It's always nice to see some good press on the military. This is an excellent story because it saves money and shows some ingenuity in replacing a damaged aircraft. Thanks for sharing the article with us.
