Amen John. Thanks for being the first to post up.
Offutt Recon? You probably know some of my ol' Batcat buddies who showed up there in late '68 early '69.
To all my friends who served-thank you! I now wish I would have been able to.
Quite possible Bob ............unless they were "spooks" ............... 55th Wing personnel didn't run in the same circles with them .............. and some of them were really spooky :3dSMILE::3dSMILE:Quote:

Uncle didn't want us moving after they had spent so much money on our security clearances
By the way ............. does this look familiar to you

Bob, did you fly with Orville and Wilbur?
