| Connie Hyland, Hylandconnie(@)aol.com, 19.11.2009 My husband worked for Rockwell, in Columbus, Ohio in 1986 and 1987 on the B-1B. Does anyone know where we can find his employment records for this time. He needs to prove that he worked for the company during that time. Thank you | | Horace Henry, hhenry5675(@)aol.com, 04.09.2009 Saw it today at the Warner Robins AFB Aviation Museum.
