Dallas, TX

ONLINE EVENT In this episode, we’re diving into the story of the PT-23 trainer aircraft assigned to the Commemorative Air Force’s Day’s Pay Squadron in Richland, Washington. More than just a warbird, this aircraft carries a rich local history connected to an extraordinary act of patriotism during World War II. In 1944, the people of Hanford, Washington, rallied together and donated a full day’s wages to fund a B-17 bomber, which became known as “Day’s Pay.” Today, the Day’s Pay Squadron continues this legacy, using the PT-23 to inspire new generations and share the story of community-driven dedication to the war effort. Join us as we explore the history of the PT-23, the significance of the Day’s Pay story, and how this squadron keeps the spirit of sacrifice and unity alive through their aircraft and educational mission.
