Happy Fathers' Day!

Happy Fathers' Day to All!

We may not shower him with praise

Nor mention his name in song,

And sometimes it seems that we forget

The joy he spreads as he goes along,

But it doesn’t mean that we don’t know

The wonderful role that he has had.

And away down deep in every heart

There’s a place that is just for Dad.....

Visit to PAF Museum and Lufthansa Technik Philippines

Not to be discouraged with the postponement of the Lake Island Campout, the Ipil Boys' Club went full force on June 2 with 10 Kids and 8 "Dads & Friends" on a visit to the Philippine Air Force Museum and the high-tech hangars of Lufthansa Technik Philippines.

The Kids and Dads are being briefed by Sarge before the tour (below).

Below, the kids pose behind an experimental trainer jet plane ("Made in the Philippines"). The museum itself is not yet finished but "Sarge" said that it would be fully-furnished by August of this year. We hope to visit the Museum again by that time.

Meanwhile, the kids try their luck outside and they pose in front of a Huey helicopter. This chopper has had better days and had seen the likes of Vietnam and the Philippines ...

Here's Mon trying out the F-5 for size. ("I think he likes it!")



Fathers, Sons and Friends pose again in front of the former Blue Diamond F-5.



The Kids had an equally great time at the maintenance and overhaul hangars of Lufthansa Technik Philippines.



The whole gang, again, posing in front of a PAL Airbus 320 parked at the maintenance hangar.
