Praise you, Red Baron!

The city of Marshall, Minnesota turned out in droves yesterday to say goodbye to the Red Baron Squadron. Schwan's, the frozen food people, own the squadron and have decided to get rid of it. (Note to Schwan's: STOP ringing my doorbell. I'm not going to buy from you. I'm not going to buy your pizza. Guess why.)

As told by the Marshall Independent...

Jean Regnier grasped the hand of each of the Red Baron Squadron pilots Tuesday afternoon and shook them.

“I just wanted to say thank you,” Regnier said. “They’ve done such a good job of representing the company and the community.”

Regnier was one of several hundred people who gathered at the Red Baron hangar at Marshall’s municipal airport to say farewell to squadron the Schwan Food Co. has retired after 28 years of air show performances.
