Missouri History Today December 17, 1993: B-2 Spirit Bomber Arrives At Whiteman
Whiteman Air Force Base
Whiteman Air Force Base, University of Central Missouri, Powell Gardens, and Buckeye Acres are plenty of reasons to go but wait there’s more. Blind Boone Park, Green Truck Bakery, and a Retrograde Charitable Toy and Video Game Museum seal the deal.
George A. Whiteman from Sedalia was shot down as his plane took off from Hawaii. He became the first pilot killed in World War II. Whiteman Air Force Base near Sedalia is named in his honor.
