All the hoopla about Ardipithecus ramidus (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ardipithecus), the newest fossil find of what is purported to be one of our most ancient relatives, has overshadowed the much more recent discovery of video of a 1943 Mohawk. Yes, that’s right! A 1943 Mohawk, complete with a crew!
The video was discovered during a recent trip to a small town in middle Tennessee. The archeologists who located this historic record were in the Volunteer State to meet with their former Army aviation comrades, something they do annually. We owe a debt of gratitude to Steve Sachs for being willing to reveal to the world that he is in possession of the only flyable 1943 Mohawk. Click on the movie below and enjoy the ride!
(Editor’s note: Alex Berkeley and I certainly did!)
