Celebrating Aviator Amelia Earhart on International Women's Day

It's International Women's Day and if you've even glanced at the news this morning, you might have seen that after nearly 81 years, researchers think they've found Amelia Earhart's remains. Earhart and navigator Frederick Noonan disappeared July 2, 1937 somewhere in the Pacific Ocean. Three years later in 1940 partial remains were found on the island, Nikumaroro, along with some artifacts that seemingly could have belonged to Earhart and Noonan.

Since being found the bones have been analyzed by several anthropologists, each with their own theory, but Richard Jantz, a University of Tennessee anthropology professor, thinks the signs more than likely point to the remains being those of the famed female aviator.

Also this week, Mattel announced that Amelia Earhart would be her own Barbie Doll! Along with other important female figures, Amelia will be unveiled as part of the toy's Inspiring Women line.

Our lady veteran is already making a list of the ones she wants and Amelia tops the list 😃

Needless to say we're celebrating one of the most inspiring humans in our nations history today with a sale on our Aviator Playing Cards!

The veterans of Cribbage Supply salute you Amelia. Fly on!
