This game is complicated, too many rules.

For some reason, your image didn't show on my screen.  I copied the url and pasted it into the address of a new tab and it opened up.



I've been to Milwaukee once, 30-something years ago, for a Yanks @ Brewers game.  It was at night.  Ron Guidry pitched a good game for the victory.
I've seen pictures of a model railroad set in Milwaukee with a photo backdrop that in my memory resembles the skyline that HB posted.
Was the name of that city revealed?

Re: Dayton

Looks nice.  Reminds me a little of Austin maybe 30 years ago.

I've never been to Ohio.  I wanted to go up to Columbus when Texas played Ohio State in 2005 but it didn't work out.

Hmmm, another cityscape against mountains.

Is it Salt Lake City?

Not Salt Lake, good guess though.

Dayton has the USAF Museum which is incredible, and free.  It's the best aircraft museum I've ever seen by far, it dwarfs the Smithsonian.

The "Dayton" one was actually Peoria IL, according to a reverse google search.

That picture of Phoenix reminded me of how it looked in May 1993, when my battalion commander, S3, and me (Bn XO) attended a reunion of the WWII American Volunteer Group ("Flying Tigers").  The 229th Avn Regiment had gotten itself unofficially affiliated with the AVG.  AVG ace Tex Hill spoke our our battalion's activation ceremony as an AH-64 unit.  We were 3rd Bn, 229th Aviation, so we named ourselves "Hell's Angels," since the 3rd squadron of the AVG went by that name.



I met this guy, R. T. Smith, AVG ace and Squadron Leader of the Hell's Angels, at the convention.


Decals of the "Flying Tiger" cartoon were sent by Walt Disney Studios.
