1941–1945 AND ALL ERAS · AT POINTER SIZE FOR WHAT WENT ELSEWHERE
No Second World War training use, auxiliary or outlying field, or Civil Air Patrol activity in Liberty Township was found in any record searched: Freeman's compilation lists northern Indiana's two Navy outlying fields — Converse and Galveston, both satellites of Bunker Hill, both far south of the county — and the state's Army airfields list names none in the county's southern tier; the CAP searches returned national history and no township activity. What went elsewhere prints at the spec's one-line pointer size and no larger: the region's wartime base went to Naval Air Station Bunker Hill at Peru (1942–46, later Grissom) and to Baer Field at Fort Wayne. Cadet Field at South Bend was reopened in August 1942 expressly "to train pilots" — that is South Bend's and Granger's record, outside this township.
Famous landings are the same shape: none documented on township ground at any size, in any era reached. The county's famous landing is South Bend's — Amelia Earhart's Lockheed Electra at Bendix Field in 1936, from the airport's own history page — printed at pointer size only. The only aviation event inside the township that any primary record documents is the accident that follows: the opposite of a famous landing, and printed at its true size there. Air shows and fly-ins close the set: no air show, fly-in or open house at North Liberty or in the township was found in any era — the ultralight fly-in record names hosts at Terre Haute, Colfax and Burnettsville, never here — with the town-paper gap (G-W3A-1) applying at its greatest force, since a small-town fly-in is precisely a town-paper event.
