Pierre Sightseeing

Unlock the best of Pierre, South Dakota over a sightseeing tour with your Travel Director. There’s no better place to discover the town’s history than at the State Capitol. Learn how it was built in 1908 and June 30, 2010 marked the 100th anniversary of the formal dedication. At this time, a time capsule was placed in a locked glass display case that you can have a look at. The capsule contains a South Dakota Quarter set from the U.S. Mint, Gov Rounds' 2010 State of the State Address, photos with personal messages from state and tribal officeholders, and several current newspapers from around the state, among other artefacts. 

Sakakawea Monument & Sitting Bull Monument

Visit the Sitting Bull and Sakakawea Monuments set in a remote spot overlooking the Missouri River. At this monument sculpted by Korczak Ziolkowski, known for Crazy Horse Memorial, learn about what would later become known as "The Battle in the Dark." The monument remembers Chief Sitting Bull, a Hunkpapa Teton Sioux spiritual leader best known for his victory over George Armstrong Custer's 7th Cavalry at the Battle of the Little Bighorn. In the 1870s, after Sitting Bull became a great spiritual leader, he organized a resistance movement against US expansion on treaty-reserved lands. But on December 15, 1890, nine years after surrendering to the US government, he was shot to death by Indian police.  

Theodore Roosevelt NP South Unit

Watch the sunrise as you go along the scenic loop of the National Park and potentially see bison herds, wild horses, coyotes, wild turkeys, and hundreds of prairie dogs. With an early start you'll also have the opportunity to enjoy the park without many other people around.

dakotas tour dates

Mission Overview

On June 6, 1944, more than 11,000 aircraft were mobilized as Allied forces began a massive land, sea, and air invasion now known as D-Day. In 2019, 15 legendary DC-3 type aircraft made a historic North Atlantic crossing to celebrate both the 75th anniversary of D-Day and the 70th Anniversary of the Berlin Airlift . Featured on the international stage and in media across the world, the men and women of the  D-Day Squadron  touched tens of thousands of lives as they flew to honor the world’s Greatest Generation.

dakotas tour dates

Building on these accomplishments, the D-Day Squadron (DDS) is coordinating a fleet of aircraft to fly to Europe in 2024 to commemorate the 80th anniversary of the D-Day Invasion and the 75th anniversary of the Berlin Airlift. In mid-May 2024, DC-3 variants representing World War II and Cold War vintage aircraft will ‘cross the pond’ from the United States to the United Kingdom, cross the English Channel to Normandy, France, then fly on to Berlin, Germany, and beyond. This is no easy task, and while nothing can compare to the amount of organization the Allied forces faced in planning for the D-Day invasion,  there is still a tremendous amount of preparation, time, and cost involved in recreating this historic anniversary tour.  The DDS is currently setting the schedule, organizing appearances across Europe, and serving as Mission Control for the 2024 Legacy Tour – a central unit for all operators, crew, and operations.

D-Day is often known historically as the beginning of the end of WWII. Our duty is to remember the significance of this event and to ensure that future generations never forget. Today, the D-Day Squadron's mission continues, to perpetuate the sights and sounds of “Flying Freedom,” and to promote the legacy of the Greatest Generation and the Douglas DC-3s in which they flew.   

Start-up costs for the 2024 Legacy Tour branding and design, mission operation and planning, campaign management, and advanced logistics in Europe are significant, and we invite you to help us ‘get off the ground’. With your support, we will honor the sacrifice of the citizen soldiers who bravely fought to end WWII and combat the tyranny of the Cold War.

A portion of the Kickstarter funds will cover the cost of the 2024 Legacy Tour campaign graphics, merchandise, swag, and apparel - which will be added to the perks and revealed on June 6, 2023. All profits received after campaign costs will go directly to the D-Day Squadron.

Mission Objectives

This effort is dubbed the “2024 Legacy Tour.” With many WWII veterans having ‘flown west’ since the D-Day Squadron’s 2019 mission, 2024 will be an opportunity to focus on both the LEGACY of these WWII veterans and the legendary aircraft that served as the backbone to multiple war campaigns. “ Our veterans are our window to the past, and this is a chance for us to continue honoring those who made sacrifices for the freedoms we have today,” shared D-Day Squadron’s mission chief pilot, Eric Zipkin. Eric will fly the lead C-47, WWII combat veteran, “Placid Lassie” throughout the entire journey.   

Starting from the Northeast United States in May of next year, the aircraft must complete six total flight legs to Europe involving crew rest, refueling, proper maintenance, formation planning, and logistics. Can you imagine? It will take the squadron 15 days, close to 3,000 nautical miles, approximately 15 hours of flight time, 120 gallons of oil, more than 1,400 gallons of fuel, and 150 crew to make this historic transatlantic crossing!

This is your chance to celebrate these amazing, historic aircraft, and ensure a proper launch effort and a safe journey for their crews!

Photo 5.jpg

As a key part of the 75th-anniversary celebrations in 2019, our paratroopers wore period-correct uniforms and jumped 'round parachutes' just like our soldiers did on June 6, 1944. Lyndse Costabile, D-Day Squadron Executive Director, says, “We look forward to replicating this in 2024, as once again, more than 150 parachutists will fill the skies, symbolizing freedom, the sacrifices made during the Normandy invasion, and the overall war effort!”  

It was also a profound privilege to lead a 15-ship flyover of the American Cemetery and Omaha Beach on June 6, 2019, for the entire world to see, including the U.S. and French Heads of State who were in attendance. “Many of the aircraft in the formation were beautifully restored C-47s that had seen battle over the beaches of Normandy in 1944,” Costabile continues. "We hope that we will have this honor again next year."  

These restored aircraft are flown by retired service members and seasoned civilian pilots. Our crewmembers are all volunteers who consider it an honor and a privilege to fly these legendary airplanes . The C-47 was the most ubiquitous airplane of the War and performed multiple services in all theatres of operation, including North Africa, Burma, New Guinea, Normandy, Sicily, and Holland. The C-54 and DC-3 were among the aircraft heroically transporting supplies into West Berlin during the Berlin Airlift.  

Join us in 2024 to honor the soldiers who jumped over the front lines and helped bring about the end of World War II!

Following the successful mission in 2019, the D-Day Squadron has continued to be a presence at multiple flyovers, aviation events, and warbird-themed airshows. The DC-3 Society was also launched to actively aid operators and enthusiasts with maintenance, operations, airworthiness, and displays. The Allies won the War, in part, because of their logistical abilities. It’s only appropriate that we, as the stewards of these noble aircraft, continue to fly and maintain the very airframes that were the backbone to achieving victory. ​The world came together in June 2019 to create a fitting tribute to The Great Crusade, which changed the course of WWII – D-Day. The ceremonies celebrating the 75th anniversary of D-Day and the Berlin Airlift were a momentous occasion to celebrate peace, liberty, and reconciliation. We consider it a great privilege to return to Europe in 2024.

Photo 7.jpg

Why do we recognize the Berlin Airlift? Some background: The Berlin Blockade (24 June 1948 – 12 May 1949) was one of the first major international crises of the Cold War following WWII. The Soviet Union blocked the Western Allies' railway, road, and canal access to the sectors of Berlin under Western control. In response, the Allies organized the Berlin Airlift to carry supplies to the people of West Berlin. From 26 June 1948 to 30 September 1949, British and American forces completed 278,228 flights to Berlin, supplying food, coal, and even candy.   

'Candy Bomber' was the colloquial name given by Berliners to the American and British transport aircraft which brought in supplies during the Berlin Airlift. The name was coined after some pilots voluntarily threw candy, attached to make-shift parachutes, to children watching the planes from the edges of the West Berlin airfields.

Photo 8.jpg

These actions were first attributed to American pilot Gail Halvorsen. Nicknamed "Uncle Wiggly Wings", he began to drop chocolate bars he had attached to handkerchief parachutes while approaching Tempelhof Airport. After comprehensive coverage in the media, Lt. General William H. Tunner ordered that large amounts of candy be dropped to German children in a mission known as "Operation Little Vittles". Orchestrating a tour of this magnitude for the 2024 Legacy Tour takes considerable resources. Please join us in looking ahead to 2024 as we celebrate the men, women, machines, and spirit of freedom that this event represents. Your support is vital to launching these ambitious efforts!

Who is Five Oaks Creative, the Kickstarter C ampaign Manager? 

Five Oaks Creative has been involved with five successful Kickstarter campaigns for historic WWII aircraft and STEM education totaling more than $500K. The 2019 campaign helped fund several of the #dday75 participating squadrons and funded the publishing of 'Fortress With No Roof', the official book chronicling the airborne activities of the 75th D-Day Anniversary. The five members of the Five Oaks team represent nearly 90 years of combined experience in nonprofit marketing and fundraising. "Our company is based in Texas with four employees and a robust network of suppliers, vendors, and collaborators. We count it a privilege to once again support the outstanding efforts of the D-Day Squadron." - David O'Connor, Owner  

Risks and challenges

'Big, Hairy, Audacious Goal' - BHAG - aptly describes the 2019 D-Day Squadron campaign! A total of 15 vintage DC-3/C-47 aircraft safely crossed the Atlantic, flew across Europe, and returned. This involved nearly 1,500 flight hours over 150,000 miles. This even included a lap around the Statue of Liberty in New York City and an overflight of Omaha Beach on June 6. The risks and challenges are significant, while at the same time surmountable. Many factors can contribute to 'Go-No-Go' status for the 2024 Legacy Tour - weather, mechanical issues, political climate, changing flight regulations, onsite permissions, etc. In the immediate future, the funding to 'kickstart' and launch the campaign in 2023 is absolutely essential to future planning and execution.
