Wings of Honor: Stories from the Pueblo Weisbrod Aviation Museum

from Vegas Veteran Voices

Keywords for Apple Music separated by commas We were supposed to be filming somewhere in Vegas… but somehow ended up 700 miles away in Pueblo, Colorado. Call it a wrong turn, call it divine intervention, but it landed us at one of the most incredible places we've ever filmed the Pueblo Weisbrod Aviation Museum. Inside 85,000 square feet of history, surrounded by jets, bombers, and even a freshly added A-10 Warthog, Brenton and Ronnie meet two Air Force veterans who prove that service doesn't end when the uniform comes off. Mike Sumida, a 30-year Air Force veteran and Lockheed Martin alum, shares powerful stories about the connection between Vietnam and Desert Storm, and how leadership is built through respect and example. Wayne, another Air Force veteran and volunteer, gives us a peek behind the hangar doors, talking about the cost (and chaos) of moving an A-10 across the country, the museum's ghost tours, and the pride that keeps this all-veteran crew going. What started as a wrong turn (ask Ronnie about the Wearwolf) became one of the most meaningful stops of the trip, a reminder that purpose, service, and community sometimes find you when you're not even looking. ABOUT THE PUEBLO WEISBROD AVIATION MUSEUM: Located at Pueblo Memorial Airport, the Pueblo Weisbrod Aviation Museum is the largest aviation museum in Colorado and one of the most extensive collections of military aircraft in the region. With over 85,000 square feet of exhibits covering World War I through modern day, the museum showcases aircraft like the F-16 Fighting Falcon, B-52 Stratofortress, and A-10 Warthog. Run almost entirely by volunteer veterans, the museum honors service through restoration, storytelling, and education. Visitors can explore the Hall of Heroes, view interactive displays, and even join the popular Saturday night paranormal tours. More than just a museum, it's a living tribute to generations of airmen whose stories continue to inspire. Learn more: www.pwam.org
