Civilians Connect With Troops at Miramar Air Show

A crowd roughly equivalent to the population of Oceanside gathered Saturday to witness astonishing displays of speed and winged power as the nation's biggest and best air show saluted the 100th anniversary of Marine aviation, reports the North County Times.

More than half a million people were expected to visit the Miramar Marine Corps Air Station during the three-day run of the 56th annual Miramar Air Show.
