Personality[edit]
Greg Heffley is mischievous, lazy, paranoid, egotistical, and dishonest. He is known to become jealous easily. He also tends to be a poor friend, something even he agrees on. He dislikes taking blame, and attempts to twist any situation he can in his favor, so that he may go up his "popularity ladder." He becomes his own worst enemy. Despite all of these negative traits, he has displayed a kinder side. Throughout the series, Greg's schemes to gain popularity in his middle school, and acquire money which always backfire.
His best friend is Rowley Jefferson, who takes part in Greg's schemes, and is sometimes a victim of Greg's manipulation and deception. The two have a very complicated relationship, as Greg sometimes takes advantage of Rowley's good nature, and his own schemes fail due to Rowley's foolishness, such as Rowley's "confession" to the vandalized wall. Rowley's parents, mostly his father, view Greg as a bad influence on their son. This is because Greg has a tendency for getting himself and Rowley into trouble.
At school, Greg receives bad grades, gets bullied, deals with the hardships of middle school and is always trying to earn popularity points in order to gain attention and respect (though his plans to do so often result in either his own popularity dropping, or unintentionally boosting Rowley's popularity). At home, Greg has a mixed relationship with his family, especially with his younger brother Manny, who is overly pampered and protected by his parents (particularly his mother Susan). His mother tries to devise ways for Greg and Rodrick to get along but which never work out. Greg's father, Frank, is annoyed by Greg's antics and laziness and tries to make him more active. Greg has a love/hate relationship with his older brother, Rodrick. Greg is often tormented and bullied by Rodrick and is also the victim of his pranks yet they do care for each other deep down. In addition, he has inherited many of Rodrick's traits (such as laziness, large ego, disdain for sports, being a trickster, etc.). In fact, many of Greg's teachers dislike him because they originally had Rodrick as a student even though Greg's classroom behavior does not mirror Rodrick's.
Greg is a fan of video games and comic books and he sees them as talents, which annoys his father Frank. His greatest gift is for cartooning and dry humour, evidenced by the many comic strips he has drawn.
Another character trait of Greg is his paranoia, which sometimes seems to get the better of him. A notable example of this is in Cabin Fever, in which he is worried that his old doll, Alfrendo, will come back to haunt him, and the Santa's Scout doll that he fears is actually following him around before finally realizing it is Rodrick who is doing it.
Greg rarely learns from his ill-fated mistakes and continues to scheme and plot for his various goals. Because of this and his impulsive nature, he usually puts himself and others in trouble, and will often try to find another person to take the blame.
Neighboring Greg is his awkward, unpopular and eccentric schoolmate named Fregley, whose vast variety of oddities disgust and befuddle those around him, including Greg, who tries to distance himself from Fregley as much as possible. Though Greg detests the fact that he is next-door-neighbors with Fregley, the only time he has ever showed interest in acquiring friendship with Fregley is in the eighth book Hard Luck, where he becomes friends with Fregley (though this was really to Greg's advantage to become popular).
Greg is also noted for having many attractions to girls throughout the series, most notably a girl named Holly Hills, his classmate. His schemes usually fail in the hope of attracting girls though. One very notable example is The Third Wheel, where Greg attempts to use Rowley as a wingman to get himself a date for the upcoming Valentine's Day dance. He succeeds in obtaining the chance to take a girl named Abigail to the dance, but Rowley, who tags along as a third wheel, hence the name, proves to be a better date than Greg at the dance. This ultimately leads to Rowley and Abigail becoming a couple, setting the stage for Hard Luck.
Greg has also been known to be very clumsy, as he forgets his homework, and when he was eight, wet the bed. Despite his many flaws and the situations they have landed him in, Greg can be caring, intelligent, courageous, compassionate and thoughtful, and has done a number of good deeds to prove this, such as deceiving his classmates that he threw the cheese away (to save Rowley's reputation), helping Rodrick complete his science project, etc. Greg also showed unusual maturity when he chose to conceal his late Meemaw's diamond ring that he found in an Easter egg, not wanting to see his family fight over it because it had not been willed to anyone.
Relationships[edit]
Rowley Jefferson[edit]
Rowley Jefferson is Greg Heffley's best and sometimes worst friend. Greg and Rowley get into a lot of trouble due to Greg's mishaps and/or Rowley's naivety. They sometimes have falling outs and they get back together eventually. There are also times when Rowley is ashamed that he lied to Greg and was too ashamed to look at him, even when Greg is asking for help.
Technically, on a third-person view of the first novel and its film adaption, Greg becomes the antagonist while Rowley becomes the protagonist due to Greg getting extremely jealous of Rowley because he gets extremely popular while Greg became unpopular later throughout the novel and film.
Rodrick Heffley[edit]
The relationship between Greg and Rodrick is one of the most important relationships in the series. He is Greg's brother and a member of the band, "Löded Diper", and loves heavy metal music. They tend to fight and argue with each other. In Rodrick Rules, Greg had an embarrassing secret: he accidentally entered the ladies' restroom of Leisure Towers. Throughout the book, Rodrick constantly threatens Greg that he will reveal this secret to the world if he provokes or annoys him. In the end however, the two bond with Greg willingly helping Rodrick on his science fair project. Rodrick seemed to know that Greg had a crush on Holly Hills in The Last Straw because when they were staying in a hotel room, Rodrick deceived Greg by saying that the Hills family were staying in a room next to theirs. Greg believed this and Rodrick pushed him out of the door and locked it. Greg was also in his underwear, which made it worse for him. Rodrick tricks Greg into thinking that their father was going to sell Greg causing Greg to call the police and almost got Frank arrested and thus ruined Frank's surprise to the baseball game and ruined the father and son bonding that their mother attempted to set up for them.
In the movie series, however, Rodrick and Greg seem to get along much better than in the books. Their bonding was the main focus of the movie adaption of Rodrick Rules. Unlike the book, in which Greg only once willingly helps Rodrick, Greg and Rodrick work together several times, including cleaning up after the party (after Rodrick points out that Greg will get busted along with him should their parents find out, whereas in the book Rodrick simply blackmails Greg), attempting to keep the party a secret (in the book, the party does not come up until the photo was printed out), going to a convenience store and going crazy (did not happen in the book), putting fake vomit on people's cars (in the book, he does this with Ward), and running from an angry coach (did not happen in the book). Greg even sticks up for Rodrick during the Talent Show, when he convinces his mom to lift Rodrick's ban from performing.
In the movie adaption for Dog Days, Greg helps sneak Rodrick into the country club via a dumpster. He expresses worry when he believes Rodrick is crushed by the truck and is extremely relieved that Rodrick is revealed to be unharmed. He also manages to get Löded Diper to perform in a "Sweet Sixteen" for Heather Hills, who Rodrick has a crush on.
In the movie version of the Long Haul the two work together to make plans to go to a xbow together and Rodrick sympathizes with Greg, at one point going as far as to tell Greg how their parents would normally expect bad behavior from him and not Greg and explains how Mom does not know how taking electronics away affects them due to never being a kid in the 21st century.
Manny Heffley[edit]
Manny is Greg's ridiculously pampered younger brother who always gets away with anything he wants; he is a toddler and the object of his parents' favoritism, to Greg's jealousy and chagrin. A spoiled child with privileges left undistributed to his elder siblings during their own early childhoods, Manny is easily perceived as innocent and adorable by adults, whereas in reality some of his actions in the past appear to implicate a far more manipulative, spiteful, and selfish nature as opposed to childlike innocence, the most prominent being in Cabin Fever, where he shuts off the entire house's electricity (save for his own room), stores all the food in his room, and lets the family suffer the backlash all because no one told him how to tie his shoes. Through his journal entries, Greg regularly complains of the adults' obliviousness to Manny's true destructive tendencies, many of which have ended in suffering, embarrassment, or punishment for Greg.
Manny's relationship with his older brother is a strained one, as any moments of sincere playfulness or brotherly affection between the pair have unfairly ended in unintentional or undeserved consequences for Greg, which has been exemplified several times throughout the course of the series. It is for this reason that Greg seems to prefer to avoid spending time with his younger brother, and they seldom seem to hang around together alone voluntarily. Their relationship is strained further by the unfairness of the constant overindulgence with which Manny is privileged, such as the quality and quantity of Christmas presents that he receives, and how he is continuously spared from parental discipline. However, Manny has also displayed particular affection for Greg by calling him by the pet name "Bubby", making him a "gift" out of tin foil and toothpicks that Rowley accidentally sat on, etc.
Susan Heffley[edit]
Susan is Greg's mother who, throughout the series, often embarrasses her two elder sons. She is clueless, loving, and is very fond of her children, especially her youngest son, Manny, who she severely spoils. She loves her middle son Greg, though she unintentionally humiliates him at nearly every turn. She fails to see that her plans are always failing. She is always encouraging her children and tries to bring the family closer together. In Dog Days, she takes over Greg's summer vacation by doing activities to get him more active, ruining his plan to play video games all summer. She does, however, fiercely defend Greg at school, even sometimes when he really should not be, and shields him from his father's anger. She tries to discourage Greg being around technology; however, her plan backfires on her badly and is forced to give up on her plan. She also wants to find good role models for Greg. Her idea of role models are those who have the same interests that she has: reading books, not playing video games and not watching TV. However, Greg is unable to bond with them because Greg cannot relate to them and does not share the same ideas as his mother, much to Susan's dismay.
Frank Heffley[edit]
Frank is Greg's father. Frank is annoyed by Greg (and also Rodrick) for his ridiculous antics and unimportant interests. The two have nearly nothing in common, and this has been displayed in the series numerous times. Frank gets upset that he has nothing in common with his 3 sons. Frank has a poor relationship with his kids. One major example is in The Last Straw, where Frank attempted to send Greg to a military academy named Spag Union, in the hope that it would reform Greg of his "wimpy" habits. But, being after "saved" by Greg from embarrassing himself at a party, Frank reconsidered the thought. By almost sending him to Spag Union and Frank's unpredictably, Greg develops a fear that Frank might get rid of him and having is trouble trusting his father. In Dog Days, Frank was going to take Greg out for a surprise; however, Greg believed that Frank was going to sell him and Greg called the police on him. Which later revealed that Frank was going to take him to a baseball game and ruined the father and son trip. Frank didn't speak to him for a while. On the opposite side of the spectrum, the two share identical opinions on the comic ‘Lil Cutie. Despite the fact that Frank is almost always strict with Greg, he still loves him, no matter how much his antics annoy him.
Holly Hills[edit]
Holly Hills is Greg's crush, who was introduced in Rodrick Rules. Greg stated that Holly was the "fourth prettiest" girl in his grade and is very attractive.
In the same book, Greg tried to get Holly's attention by making jokes and random humor, however, it did not seem to attract her at all. Greg's attempts to talk to Holly and make his move always end up in failure. Greg heard that Holly and her friends were going to the Roller Rink. At the Roller Rink, Greg had to wear his backup glasses because he lost his contact lenses, and when talking to Holly, she mistakenly called him Fregley, which upsets Greg and causes him to lose interest in her.
In the same book, when signing yearbooks in the end, Holly signed Greg's yearbook stating that he was "Okay" and to "K.I.T." (Keep in Touch) which makes Greg have a slight interest in Holly again, but this goes away completely once Greg sees what Holly wrote in Rowley's yearbook—stating that Rowley is "cute". Greg writes back, pretending to be Rowley, stating that he wants to be "just friends".
In the movies, things play out differently. In Rodrick Rules, Holly Hills moved to Greg's school and Greg did things to get her to notice him, making a fool of himself half the time. When Holly called him Fregley, Greg did not lose interest and instead was simply upset. At Leisure Towers, Holly talked with Greg outside, saying that she was at her Grandfather's place at the retirement community building. Holly apologized to Greg about calling him Fregley, and Greg pretended that he did not know anything about that. She tells him that she can relate to him about her siblings giving her a hard time. She is more mature than her siblings. Greg and Holly become friends in the end.
In the Dog Days film adaption, Holly's role from the previous books had been expanded. Greg wants to become more than just friends with Holly during the summer, which implies that he wants to become her boyfriend. Greg gets Holly to sign his yearbook and was able to get her to write her number, but misses the last two numbers before leaving due to interference from Patty, Heather Hills and Rodrick. At the country club, Greg meets up with Holly as she is volunteering to teach tennis to little kids. Greg accepts an invite to play tennis with her the next day-in order to impress her, but Holly soon figures out that neither he nor Rowley know how to play tennis and teaches Greg personally while Patty teaches Rowley personally.
Later in the movie, Holly did not seem to have a problem when Greg sneaked into the Country Club. When Greg says he wanted to hang out with her, and almost reveals his feelings for her, Heather Hills comes by and interrupts. Rodrick has a big crush on Heather, and Greg manages to get Loded Diper in for live music at Heather's Sweet 16. After Rodrick's band fails and ruins Heather's Sweet 16, Greg apologizes to Holly, but Holly did not care due to her sister being mean. She felt her sister deserved what she got. Holly holds Greg's hand, showing that she has affection for him, and they get together, swimming at the Country Club pool with each other and Rowley.
Abigail Brown[edit]
In the Third Wheel book, while Greg tries to get a date to the school dance, Rowley tells him that a girl from the student council, Abigail Brown, has been "dumped" by her former date, Michael, because he needed to go to his family reunion, which was later revealed as an excuse to go out with another girl. Greg immediately jumps in, telling Rowley to tell Abigail that they could all go together as a "group of friends", and Greg hopes that after that night, Abigail will see how much of a "great guy he is", and get her to be his girlfriend. Greg does what he can to get Abigail to be his girlfriend, but is later rejected by her, so that she can go out with Rowley, Greg's best friend.
She has a more prominent role in the sequel, Hard Luck. Following the events of the previous book, Abigail begins to subtly dismantle the relationship between Rowley and Greg, including but not limited to moving Rowley to a different table, feeding him, and convincing Rowley to give up activities that he and Greg enjoy, like blowing bubbles in chocolate milk cartons. She also displays a manipulative side, as she takes advantage of Rowley's innocence and childlike behavior and subtly forces Rowley to think the same way SHE thinks, as well as being responsible for his change of appearance. Greg describes this as if Rowley does not own opinions anymore. This is an irritant for Greg throughout the book. She is also shallow, as she harshly dumps Rowley in favor of her former boyfriend, Michael. It is later revealed that she only went out with Rowley in order to make Michael jealous.
Fregley[edit]
Fregley is a child who lives in Greg's neighborhood. Greg is not particularly fond of him because he acts strangely. In Dog Days, Greg's mom tries to get him and Fregley together for a "playdate". Greg neglects to do anything with Fregley, but that does not bother Fregley. He thinks that Greg is cool and wants to hang out with him. Greg is unaware of this and remains so throughout the books, although in Hard Luck, it is shown that Greg tries to make Fregley his best friend. However, this attempt fails, and somehow Fregley becomes the most famous student at Westmore Middle School and making Greg jealous.
Maddox Selsam[edit]
Maddox comes from out of town after he got Greg's balloon. He reveals that he has not played video games, watched TV, or used a computer, and goes crazy when he sees them. Maddox likes reading books, playing with LEGO and practicing his violin. Maddox is revealed to be selfish and refuses to share his good Legos and makes Greg plays worthless Legos. Because of this, Susan sees this as an opportunity for Greg to have a role model and wants Greg to be like him; however, Greg only came to see him to get the balloon. Things went bad when Maddox accused Greg of stealing a LEGO piece that was stuck to his arm and thus ending the play date. Susan was very disappointed and angry that Greg could not bond with Maddox like she was hoping for. Susan failed to see that Maddox was selfish and antisocial.
Angie Steadman[edit]
Angie Steadman only appears as an additional character in the Diary of a Wimpy Kid film. Angie meets Greg and Rowley under the bleachers during P.E. Angie gives Greg and Rowley advice about middle school and being yourselves. She gets along with Rowley, but starts a rocky relationship with Greg after he egotistically declines her offer to join the school newspaper and refusing to listen to her. Greg did not want Rowley to be around her. However, Rowley hangs out with her anyway and listens to Angie's advice and this causes Rowley to be successful much to Greg's dismay. Angie did not hesitate to humiliate Greg by taking pictures of his humiliations much to Greg's dismay. Later, after Greg hit rock bottom due to his own arrogance, Greg later tells the whole school he ate the cheese instead of Rowley. Angie compliments him and see that Greg is slowly learning the error of his ways.
Patty Farrell[edit]
She is Greg's nemesis and enemy. Introduced in the first book, Greg bullied her in kindergarten and fourth grade. Patty Farrell is also Dorothy in the school play of The Wizard of Oz. Patty Farrell does an astounding rendition of "Memories" in the Diary of a Wimpy Kid movie. She also beats Greg at a wrestling match when they join the wrestling team.
Chirag Gupta[edit]
Chirag Gupta is one of Greg's schoolmates and a minor character in the books. He is characterized by his short stature. Although he and Greg are well-acquainted and generally amiable to one another, Greg started the "Invisible Chirag" prank in Rodrick Rules. During the summer the Gupta family were to move away but an unexplained alteration in their plans changed this. As a result, Chirag's classmates teasingly ignore his existence or presence for days on end, which aggravates and shocks him. Though Chirag has apparently forgiven Greg and his fellow schoolmates for concocting the prank, it is mentioned in one book that he takes advantage of his family's non-observance of the Christmas holiday, and no obligation to behave for Santa Claus, to pick on Greg.
In the movie adaptions, Chirag's role is enhanced and he is a close friend of Greg and Rowley. He also plays a considerably more prominent role in these films, appearing in adaptions of books in which he is absent or hardly mentioned. He was willing to help Greg after hearing the scouts disrespecting Greg's dad. He is depicted as being Indian-American. He is portrayed by Karan Brar.
In other works[edit]
Greg Heffley appears on Poptropica's 18th island, Wimpy Wonderland, revolving around the Wimpy Kid series.[2] Greg has also appeared as a balloon in the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade since 2010. Greg returns in Wimpy Boardwalk on Poptropica.
In the films[edit]
Main article: Diary of a Wimpy Kid (film series)
Zachary Gordon as Greg Heffley.
In the first three adaptions of the series, Greg was portrayed by actor Zachary Gordon. The first adaption Diary of a Wimpy Kid was directed by Thor Freudenthal. The film was released on March 19, 2010.[3] It was released on DVD, iTunes, and Blu-ray on August 3, 2010.[4] The movie stars Zachary Gordon as Greg, Robert Capron as Rowley, Steve Zahn as Greg's father, Rachael Harris as Greg's mother, Devon Bostick as Rodrick, Chloë Grace Moretz as a new character named Angie, and Connor and Owen Fielding as Manny.
The second film Diary of a Wimpy Kid: Rodrick Rules was released by 20th Century Fox on 25 March 2011 worldwide and 17 March in Singapore with the old cast reprising as their roles. The film was directed by David Bowers and it follows Greg and Rodrick's mother Susan's misguided attempts to force the two brothers to bond with each other through a system called "Mom Bucks". It received mixed reviews from critics though it has received several awards and has been nominated for several nominations, mostly at the 33rd Young Artist Awards.
The third film in the franchise is titled Diary of a Wimpy Kid: Dog Days and was released on 3 August 2012, with the old cast returning in their roles. Bowers returns as director, and the film follows Greg's rough summer break. It is the final film to feature the original cast, and they return to the television film called The Diary of a Wimpy Kid Show on Fox in 26 January 2017. The cast was completely changed for the fourth film Diary of a Wimpy Kid: The Long Haul, which was released on 19 May 2017 with Jason Drucker as Greg, Charlie Wright as Rodrick, Owen Asztalos as Rowley, Wyatt and Dylan Walters as Manny, Tom Everett Scott as Frank and Alicia Silverstone as Susan.
Reception[edit]
Although the character was acclaimed by critics in the books[citation needed], the reception was not the same for the film; Rotten Tomatoes has said that Greg is an "unlikable protagonist".[5] Pomeranz disliked the character of Greg Heffley, saying "I really thought he was unpleasant. I did not want to spend time with him. I couldn't wait for the end of this film."[6] However, these were reviews for the first film and in her review of the Dog Days film, Abby West of Entertainment Weekly wrote that Greg is a likeable kid.[full citation needed]

Skyline Drive is a 105-mile (169 km) road that runs the entire length of the National Park Service's Shenandoah National Park in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia, generally along the ridge of the mountains. The drive's northern terminus is at an intersection with U.S. Route 340 (US 340) near Front Royal, and the southern terminus is at an interchange with US 250 near Interstate 64 (I-64) in Rockfish Gap, where the road continues south as the Blue Ridge Parkway. The road has intermediate interchanges with US 211 in Thornton Gap and US 33 in Swift Run Gap. Skyline Drive is part of Virginia State Route 48, which also includes the Virginia portion of the Blue Ridge Parkway, but this designation is not signed.
A park entrance fee is charged at the four access points to the drive. Skyline Drive is a two-lane road that has 75 overlooks providing views of the Shenandoah Valley to the west and the Piedmont to the east. The drive provides access to numerous trails, including the Appalachian Trail, and it is also used for biking and horseback riding. Skyline Drive is the main road through Shenandoah National Park and has access to campgrounds, visitor centers, and resorts such as Skyland Resort and Big Meadows. The scenic drive is particularly popular in the fall for leaf peeping when the leaves are changing colors. Skyline Drive is designated a National Scenic Byway and a National Historic Landmark and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
Plans for the road date back to 1924 when a national park was planned in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia and the main feature was to be a "sky-line drive" providing views of the surrounding land. President Herbert Hoover, who had a summer home at Rapidan Camp, called for the construction of the road. Groundbreaking for Skyline Drive took place in 1931. The first section, which originally was to run from Rapidan Camp to Skyland, was extended between Swift Run Gap and Thornton Gap and opened in 1934. Skyline Drive was extended north to Front Royal in 1936 and south to Jarman Gap in 1939. The road between Jarman Gap and Rockfish Gap was built as part of the Blue Ridge Parkway in 1939 and was incorporated into Skyline Drive in 1961. The Civilian Conservation Corps played a large part in constructing Skyline Drive. Improvements have been made to the roadway since it was built. Skyline Drive was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1997, became a National Scenic Byway in 2005, and was designated a National Historic Landmark in 2008.

Route description[edit]
Skyline Drive takes a winding north–south path along the mountaintops of the Blue Ridge Mountains east of the Shenandoah River from Front Royal to Rockfish Gap, serving as the only public road through Shenandoah National Park. There are four entrance points to Skyline Drive located at US 340 near I-66 in Front Royal, US 211 in Thornton Gap, US 33 in Swift Run Gap and US 250 near I-64 in Rockfish Gap. At the south end in Rockfish Gap it connects to the northern terminus of the Blue Ridge Parkway, a free-access road that continues southward along the Blue Ridge Mountains. On the west side of the drive, mileposts are present. They are numbered from 0 to 105 (north to south) and serve as reference points to directions in the drive. There are 75 overlooks throughout the drive, providing views of the Shenandoah Valley to the west and the Piedmont to the east.
The speed limit is 35 miles per hour (56 km/h), due to curves, wildlife and tourists. Bicycles, motor vehicles, and pedestrians share the road. There are also deer, black bears, turkey, and other wildlife, which may appear and cross the road without warning. These all require extra precautions. The speed limit within the park is strictly enforced by park rangers.[5][6] Numerous trails can be accessed along the drive, including a portion of the Appalachian Trail, which follows the road's path.
Biking and horseback riding are other recreational activities that are allowed on the road.[7] The drive is popular in the fall months for leaf peeping to view fall foliage. Skyline Drive is closed from dusk to dawn from November to early January to ensure rangers can control illegal hunting. The drive can also close for a short time following snow or ice storms.[8] Skyline Drive is designated a National Scenic Byway.[9]

Entrance fees[edit]
Sign at south entrance to Skyline Drive
Major entry points to Skyline Drive located in Front Royal, Thornton Gap, Swift Run Gap, and Rockfish Gap.[10] Fees are collected at the Skyline Drive's four access points. The fee is not a toll charged to drive on the road, but rather an entry fee for the park itself. Various passes allow for admission to the park. A $25.00 pass is valid for unlimited entrances within a seven-day period for a private non-commercial vehicle. A seven-day pass costs $15.00 for motorcycles and $10.00 for individuals 16 years of age or older entering by means other than a private non-commercial vehicle. Commercial tours pay between $25.00 and $200.00 for a seven-day pass, depending on the number of passengers.[11] An annual park pass costs $50.00 for a private non-commercial vehicle. Entrance can also be gained through the America the Beautiful: National Parks and Federal Recreational Lands Pass series. In this series, the Annual Pass costs $80.00, the lifetime Senior Pass costs $10.00, the lifetime Access Pass allows free admission for persons with disabilities, and the Volunteer Pass allows free admission for volunteers who work 250 service hours for the following year. A free Annual Pass is also available for members of the United States Armed Forces and fourth graders can get free admission for their whole family through the Every Kid in a Park Pass.[12]
History[edit]
Further information: Shenandoah National Park § History
In 1924, the Southern Appalachian National Park Committee was searching for a site for a national park in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia that would be easily accessible from major cities on the East Coast of the United States such as Washington, D.C. and settled on the current site of Shenandoah National Park. As part of the recommendation for the park was the "greatest single feature" to be a "sky-line drive" that would provide views of the Shenandoah Valley to the west and the Piedmont to the east.[13] The idea for the roadway was suggested by committee member William C. Gregg to Board of Shenandoah Valley, Inc. member L. Ferdinand Zerkel during a visit to Skyland.[14] In 1929, President Herbert Hoover, who established a summer home in the area, called for the roadway to be built along the Blue Ridge Mountains.[15] The road was proposed to be named Hoover Highway, but would instead become known as Skyline Drive.[16]
Skyline Drive near milepost 12 in the fall
Field survey for the roadway began in January 1931. On July 18 of that year, an official groundbreaking for Skyline Drive took place. The first section of the road was to be built from the Rapidan Camp to the Skyland Resort, but would be extended from Swift Run Gap to Thornton Gap. The funds for the first stretch of the drive came from the Federal Drought Relief Administration and employed local farmers and apple pickers who suffered from a severe drought in 1930. In the later part of 1932, Congress approved $1 million (equivalent to $14.8 million in 2016,[17]) in funds to construct Skyline Drive, which would extend from Front Royal to Swift Run Gap. The Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) was formed in 1933 and would have a hand in the construction of Skyline Drive.[14] President Franklin D. Roosevelt was impressed with the scenery of the mountains and established the first CCC camps along Skyline Drive.[16] These camps were the first to be placed in a national park.[15] The CCC graded the slopes on both sides of the roadway, built guardrails and stone walls, constructed overlooks, and planted thousands of trees and shrubs along the parkway. Three different companies were awarded contracts for bituminous surfacing of the road. The section of Skyline Drive between Thornton Gap and Swift Run Gap opened in the middle part of 1934 and cost $1,570,479 (equivalent to $22.6 million in 2016,[17]). This section of the roadway included the Marys Rock Tunnel, a tunnel that was bored through Marys Rock. A tunnel was constructed at this location as opposed to a cut. The tunnel was justified as a money-saving measure but was also suggested to challenge Bureau of Public Roads and National Park Service landscape architects.[14] With the official establishment of Shenandoah National Park in 1935, the CCC hired 300 men, most of whom were not local to the area, to continue to build Skyline Drive.[18] On October 1, 1936, the drive was completed between Front Royal and Thornton Gap at a cost of $1,235,177 (equivalent to $17.2 million in 2016,[17]). The portion of Skyline Drive from Swift Run Gap to Jarman Gap was opened to traffic on August 29, 1939, costing $1,666,528 (equivalent to $23.1 million in 2016,[17]). The road between Jarman Gap and Rockfish Gap was built as part of the Blue Ridge Parkway and was completed on August 11, 1939, at a cost of $358,636 (equivalent to $4.97 million in 2016,[17]). This section of the Blue Ridge Parkway was given to Shenandoah National Park in 1961 and became the southernmost portion of Skyline Drive.[14] The creation of the park and the construction of Skyline Drive resulted in many people losing their homes either voluntarily or forcibly; several homes within the present-day park were razed.[18]
Highest point along the drive, at Skyland in Madison County
Skyline Drive was originally lined with miles of chestnut log guardrails. However, the guardrails rotted and were removed in the 1950s and not replaced. The Marys Rock Tunnel was partially lined with concrete in 1958 to prevent icicles in the winter and water seepage in the summer. In 1983, the Federal Highway Administration began work to replace several of the original stone walls on the drive with concrete walls that used the original stone as a veneer.[14] The road was added to the National Register of Historic Places on April 28, 1997.[2] On September 22, 2005, Skyline Drive was designated a National Scenic Byway.[19] Skyline Drive was designated a National Historic Landmark in October 2008 for its pioneering place in the development of national parks in the eastern United States.[4][20]

The 2017 United States Marine Corps KC-130 crash occurred around 4 P.M.[1][2] on Monday, July 10, 2017, when a Lockheed KC-130T Hercules aircraft of the United States Marine Corps (USMC) crashed, killing all 16 people on board.[3] The aircraft was from Marine Aerial Refueler Transport Squadron 452 (VMGR-452) based at Stewart Air National Guard Base, New York. Debris from the aircraft was found in Leflore County, Mississippi. It is currently under investigation.[4] The USMC released a statement calling the event a "mishap."[5]
The crash and the 2016 Lockhart hot air balloon crash (in which 16 people were also killed) are the deadliest aviation accidents in the United States since the crash of Colgan Air Flight 3407 in 2009, which killed 50 people.[6] It is also the deadliest aviation disaster in Mississippi since the National Transportation Safety Board began keeping records in 1962,[7] and the deadliest Marine Corps disaster since 2005, when a U.S. Marine Corps Sikorsky CH-53E Super Stallion helicopter crashed in Iraq, killing 31 people.[8]

Aircraft[edit]
The aircraft involved was a Lockheed KC-130T Hercules tanker/transport of the United States Marine Corps built in 1993, with Bureau Number (BuNo.) 165000.[9] The aircraft was nicknamed Triple Nuts because of the abbreviated number "000" on its nose.[9] The aircraft was initially delivered to the United States Air Force in 1993 and later was transferred to the United States Navy and then assigned to the U.S. Marine Corps. It was damaged on the ground during a storm on 1 June 2004 at Naval Air Station Joint Reserve Base Fort Worth, Texas. As a result of the storm, it was flipped onto its port wingtip, damaging a refueling pod. It was quickly repaired and placed back into service.
Accident[edit]
The accident aircraft was reported to have suffered an in-flight explosion and mid-air break up at an altitude around 20,000 feet (6,100 m) while en-route from Marine Corps Air Station Cherry Point in North Carolina to Naval Air Facility El Centro in California,[10][11] before it crashed 85 miles (137 km) north of Jackson, Mississippi, killing all sixteen occupants. Debris was spread in a 5-mile (8 km) radius from the crash site and firefighters attending the crash site used 4,000 US gallons (15,000 l) of foam to extinguish the post-crash fire.[12][13][14]
