In the mean time, can someone explain what these are and where
they are located?

Hurlburt Field is in the Florida Panhandle roughly halfway between Pensacola
and Panama City. Hurlburt is home of Air Force, special ops. Just inside the
main gate on highway 98 there is a park with assorted aircraft used over the
years by special ops. They include an A-37, AC-130, H-1, A-1 etc. The base
chapel has a stained glass window dedicated to the men who died in Iran during
the hostage rescue attempt.

The base is also where Doolittle practiced for the raid on Japan.

I'll go over tomorrow at lunch time. The Airpark took some hits.
