(Photos: At Air Force Academy, a B-52 tells the story)

B-52 tells a story: I enjoyed the photos of the B-52 at the academy. Your descriptive information gives the impression that the B-52 served for 27 years. The B-52B Entered service in June of 1955. The B-52 is still in service, now as the B-52H which entered service in 1961. Estimates indicate that the B-52 will be in service until 2040!

For a very comprehensive history on the development and service of the B-52, check out:
