Langley Air Force Base Memorial Park

My first review where I’m on a military installation — sure why not.
First, a bit of history lesson — Langley Air Force Base Memorial Park was created to memorize the Service Members that participated in conflicts around the world; three aircraft were originally are on display — painted in «ghost gray» for the respect of Service Members who lost their lives in these conflicts. The aircraft originally on display are the F-​86 Saber, F-​105 Thunderchief and F-​15 Eagle representing the Korean, Vietnam, and Cold Wars. It was only recently where the F-​16 Fighting Falcon was added to honor Service Members that participated in Desert Storm.
The Memorial Park does instill a feeling of being part of a larger objective — and to remember our past, and appreciate what these Service Members performed and paid for where are today.
About the park itself — there are 4 parking lots which can probably hold about 20 – 50 cars each. Driving in this area can be a challenge that is unfamiliar with these roads. There is a small trail around the perimeter of the park, which for me, I think I covered that entire perimeter in about an hour walking around. And there are paths where I could walk up and see each plane up close, and read a memorial on Gen. Jerome O’Malley and the Tactical Air Command.
The Park is a convenient location for going on walks and even walking the four-​legged variety. One thing I noticed is how a couple of the dogs were not disturbed by jet-​powered aircraft taking off (about less than a 0.5 miles away).
Overall, a great Park to get in some casual cardiovascular workout — enjoy some fresh air, and remember the heritage of those from our past.
