My Grandfather Tim McCarthy joined the United States Air Force in Dec 1950 and served until Dec 1954 as an aircraft mechanic. I made this for him and gave it to him on Father's Day June 2017.  He passed away in his home on July 3, 2017.  He was an Engineer for the Union Pacific Railroad for 42 years retiring in 1992.  He was like a father to me and I loved him very much.

That must have been such a fabulous thing to get to give it to him in person! Really nice display! My GGGUncle was an airplane mechanic in WWII. I always enjoy mechanics and ground crew! :)
