Column: Submarine veterans fight to keep memorial torpedo in Lehigh Valley
Submarine crews from World War II were honored with a memorial at the Naval Reserve center near Lehigh Valley International Airport in 1985. Today, there are few submarine veterans left from that war. And their memorial is gone now, too.
The 76,000 square-foot facility will have two swimming pools as well as private showers and bathrooms that will accommodate both men and women.
Air Force ROTC and U.S. Air Force Academy cadets have a new program available to help them prepare for careers in special tactics, combat rescue or tactical air control.
The Air Force's new program for cadets was tested at two-week Special Warfare Orientation Courses this summer at the Air Force Academy.
