In celebration of the unveiling of the Brig. Gen. C.E. “Bud” Anderson statue, Warbirds in Review has partnered with Special Tribute Spirits to offer a handcrafted commemorative aviation decanter honoring Bud’s extraordinary life and legacy.

Created using authentic aircraft tools and materials, this distinctive decanter features an iconic photograph of Bud standing proudly in front of one of his beloved “Old Crow” Mustangs, along with a reproduction of his signature, graciously authorized by the Anderson family.

More than a collectible, each decanter is a personal tribute to Bud Anderson and helps support the continued mission of Warbirds in Review. Special Tribute Spirits is generously donating 100% of the proceeds to Warbirds in Review.

Another Look at a Special Tribute to Bud Anderson
Take another look at the unveiling of the Brig. Gen. Bud Anderson statue in the Bud Anderson Memorial Garden at EAA AirVenture Oshkosh. Connie Bowlin was the driving force behind bringing this lasting tribute to Bud to life, with Bud’s son, Jim Anderson, and members of the Warbirds of America Board of Directors in attendance for this memorable occasion. This tribute would not have been possible without the generous support of our donors, whose commitment helped make the statue a reality. Surrounded by family, friends, fellow aviators, and members of the Warbirds community, the statue was unveiled as a lasting tribute to Bud’s remarkable life, service, and legacy in American aviation.

Some aircraft make history. Others let you hear it come alive. Watching the B-17 "Sentimental Journey" start up is something you don't just see—you feel. ✈

The Vietnam War became known as the world's first true "Helicopter War," forever changing modern combat.

Three helicopters tell that story: the Hiller OH-23 Raven, Sikorsky UH-34D Seahorse, and the legendary Bell UH-1 Huey. Each marked a major step in the evolution of battlefield aviation.

The OH-23 pioneered reconnaissance and artillery spotting, proving helicopters could transform ground warfare. The rugged UH-34D became the U.S. Marine Corps' workhorse, carrying troops, evacuating casualties, and supplying front-line forces. Their success paved the way for the iconic Huey, which came to symbolize the Vietnam War itself.

Together, these helicopters didn't just support the fight—they revolutionized how wars would be fought for generations to come.
