Air Force Cemetery, Spokane

Fall at the Air Force Cemetery just off Government Way and West of Fort Wright. There are a surprising number of infants and very young children buried here. Children of enlisted men. The most prominent death years were 1955, 56, 57. Odd. Surely infant deaths are common but there are too many. Something must have been happening which was unusual. One wonders about radiation of parents as the fathers flew the bombers going to and from Fairchild Air Force Base just west of Spokane.
