This episode sponsored by "Dogfights" (only on the History Channel

"Dogfights" is a program on the History Channel that we accidently happened upon at the last CHN homeschooling conference. Since then, we've seen many episodes, purchased Season 1, learned quite a bit about aviation, World War I, World War II, the Korean Conflict and much more. Nicolas and I have been inspired by several episodes, and so we present our tribute to "Dogfights" in Lego of course:
