149/R365 - B-2 Operations Display - Whiteman Air Force Base - Knob Noster, Missouri

Monument located just inside the main entrance gate at Whiteman Air Force Base in Missouri with a 'sculpture' of a Northrop Grumman B-2 Spirit Stealth Bomber and numerous flags. I was able to find two plaques within the display that read as follows:

--Operation Enduring Freedom--
On 7 October 2001, B-2 Spirit Bombers flown by Airmen of the 509th Bomb Wing led the air campaign over Afghanistan during Operation Enduring Freedom. The success of that mission, and the following campaigns, was due in part to the excellence and dedication of the men and women of the 509th Bomb Wing and Whiteman AFB.
Dedicated 7 October 2011 by
Brigadier General Scott Vander Hamm
Commander, 509th Bomb Wing
Whiteman Air Force Base

"We will always remember. We will always be proud. We will always be prepared so we may always be free."
