Description

Paperback / softback. New. Although the Texan airfield was originally the Pyote Army Airfield, the serpents encountered during construction earned it the name of ""Rattlesnake Bomber Base."" For those who served on the airfield, what is now a ruin is a monument to a time when men and snakes and bombers came together in the desert to share a chapter of American history.
