After the pandemic forced the cancellation of their 2020 event, the fifth TBM Reunion and Salute to Veterans is now set to occur in Peru, Illinois on May 14/15 according to the air show’s founder, Brad Deckert. The event, normally an annual affair, is dedicated to WWII veterans and the famed Grumman Avenger naval torpedo bomber.
