From World War II onward, America's good right arm was her fighting forces. These fighting forces had prevailed because that good right arm wielded magnificent weapons.

Yes, it sounds like it.

But what is it?  Hoover is the Grand Marshal of what?
A parade around the airport?

I'm a little confused. I know the WMOF does some "unique" events as to not be in conflict with the established Torrance Air Fair Association.

I hear this rumor of a possible B-1B flyover.

Anyone know anything?   

It's not on the ACC site.  Is a Boeing B-1B departing KLGB?  EAFB flyby?
