A Daughter's Fond Recollections

In the 75 years since the dedication of Bryan Army Air Field, generations have come and gone at the RELLIS Campus site.

Our nation's "Greatest Generation" is leaving us. In their place are children and grandchildren and even great grandchildren whose memories sustain those from days gone by.

Mary Jo Prince, a driving force with the Bryan Lions Club and a project coordinator with the Texas A&M AgriLife Extension Service, is one of the many offspring of the men who served their country at Bryan Field.

She looks back fondly on the life and legacy of her father.
