I'm camped tonight at Green Valley Ranch Resort and Casino in Henderson, NV for a couple of days.
Cousin Ken and I and a few other folks took a day trip today to check out the Red Rock Canyon National Conservation Area.

Norden Bombsight training at Deming NM
During the Second World War, Deming was again the designated location for a training base. This time, the Deming Army Air Base was established east of town to train young airmen in the use of the secret Norden bombsight. The trainees were processed in groups of 500 every 6 weeks, and they flew their missions in the 150 AT-11 Beechcraft trainers, designated the Kansan, each armed with up to 10 practice bombs.
