Greetings Visitors!

We are very pleased to launch this web site dedicated to the memory of the women and men who fought on the home front of the B-24 Bomber plant known as Willow Run. The Yankee Air Museum (soon to be renamed National Museum of Aviation and Technology!) has partnered with Stone Bridge Productions to produce a full-length documentary film about this great American story – how this community of workers and engineers overcame tremendous odds to help out-produce Nazi Germany to win WWII.

Thanks again for visiting. Much more to come!
