In this episode I explore some of the history of the Kellogg Airfield in Battle Creek, Michigan. I also include the story of the B-17 Flying Fortress named 'Snap, Crackle & Pop' which served in the European Theatre of Operations in 1942 during World War II. The plane was named by a pilot that had formerly been an engineer at Kellogg's and as cooincidence would have it, he was instructed to land he new plane at the Kellogg Airfield on his way to England.
I also cover some of the history of another B-26 Bombardment Group that landed at the Kellogg Airfield on its journey to England.
