From 23 Jun to 15 Jul 2006, I was at Little Rock Air Force Base training 19 Air Force ROTC cadets from other universities/colleges around the nation. On 3 Jul, we went to the Little Rock Central High School and went to the visitor center (which is in an old gas station across the street from the school) and walked around the front of the school. Here are some of the photos we took of the school and the visitor center. Unfortunately, not all the photos turned out, so I supplemented the presentation with photos from the internet. I also included comments in the notes area to give the photos context If you think they might be useful to others, feel free to send them to the other instructors.
