We study the Milky Way region (|Z|<3.0kpc) where the thick disk and inner halo overlap by using the kinematics of local blue horizontal branch (BHB) stars (within 1kpc) and new samples of BHB stars and A-type stars from the Century Survey. We derive Galactic U, V, and W velocities for these BHB and A-type star samples using proper motions from the NOMAD catalog.
