University of Alabama at Birmingham Department of Art and Art History students are part of a big historical art project — so big, it is held inside an airplane hangar.
This year, the 117th Air Refueling Wing of the Alabama Air National Guard is memorializing four fallen Alabama veterans who died during the Bay of Pigs invasion in 1961. The four men, Leo Baker, Wade Gray, Thomas “Pete” Ray and Riley Shamburger, are remembered by the Wing each year.
