The Carpetbagger Aviation Museum was founded in 1993 to commemorate the 50th anniversary reunion of the USAAF’s 801st / 492nd Bomb Group (The Carpetbaggers) at Harrington. The museum’s displays and exhibits depict the airfield’s history and vividly depict the work of the 801st (Provisional) / 492nd Bomb Group, particularly during Operation Carpetbagger and their secret missions to deliver agents and supplies to resistance groups in Occupied Europe during WWII.
