Exhibit On Aug. 12 th , the Collings Foundation brought its
“Wings of Freedom” Tour, a traveling display of several World
War II-era planes, to the Chautauqua County Airport. One of
them, a B-24 bomber named “Witchcraft,” was the same type of
plane that 94-year-old Alden Smith, a resident of the Lutheran
Home and Rehabilitation Center, worked on during his 11 years
of service as an airplane mechanic in the U.S. Army Air Corps.
Alden had the opportunity to take a trip to the airport to see
the planes in person once more, where several visitors and staff
came over to thank him for his service, listened to stories from
his time working on the planes and shared laughs. 8/19/2019
