Talk:Richland Bombers

This revisionism of the history of the school and it's mascot just keeps on going. There is absolutely no verifiable documentation EVER produced showing the "Day's Pay" B-17 as the "mascot" of Columbia High School at the inception of the school. No mention in a yearbook, no mention in a school newspaper, no pictures, nada.

Political correctness is fine. But to attempt to rewrite history with no credible sources to back it up and, worse, trying to make it work around a timeline that completely belies the story? And to make it almost criminal, the entire campaign was begun and is still carried out by TEACHERS!

What are you teaching your students, folks?

For a complete, well documented, researched and with numerous verifiable sources for the truth of this history, see: The Bomber, The Bomb and the Bombers by Kieth Maupin. TCHT (talk) 00:07, 23 June 2010 (UTC)
