The B-52 and Oscoda: The Making of Wurtsmith Air Force Base
Delta College Public Media's latest local documentary takes a look at life on Wurstmith Air Force Base, the small town of Oscoda, Michigan, and how the two are intertwined. Wurtsmith was one of three Strategic Air Command bases in Michigan with the B-52 bomber. If you spent any time near Oscoda during the Cold War, you'd be familiar with the sights and sounds of military aircraft taking to the skies.
