Dale "Pee-Wee" Schwamborn was a 20-year-old college student when he led the way as an advance scout during the 1959 Airstream caravan from Cape Town, South Africa, to Cairo, Egypt, a trip that took about six months to complete.

Fifty years later, Schwamborn was again at the front of the pack as a caravan of Airstreams made tribute to the original trip. Bridget DiCosmo of the Southeast Missourian has the full story.
