Rick,

Amen to that.

A good friend that I grew up with started as an Army Huey pilot around 1968. He had moved up to Blackhawks by the time he quit flying.

USA Today did an article on Vietnam era pilots still flying and some of the challenge's that gave flight surgeons. The article had a picture of my friend and a fellow pilot suited up in front of their Blackhawk.

Needless to say neither was the lean, mean flying machines they were in the '60's. I wrote him and asked when they started making relaxed fit nomex flight suits.

Clyde was a skinny MoFo back then.... (weren't we all)

That's how he got shot down 9 times and only hit 3 times.

Shots at 3 & 9 couldn't find him.

If you have no enemies

You have no character !

Scars are tattoos with better stories!

When you're out of F-4's you're out of fighters!
