We had just switched from Phantoms to Tomcats...
Thank you for you service, Sir!
I worked on the Phantoms till they transitioned to the FA-18 then got out...Det for 8 months a year was just too over the top for me.
@E-buzz: Thanx for a great post! Gorgeous pix of the Tomcat, one of the all time greats
I'm not one to be picky or anything (ok, I am...shhhh!

) but shouldn't the birds be chalked-N-chained? Far as I can recall...you know...this morning's coffee time, roughly

...they were supposed to be unless they were actually
moving or on a cat, something like that...Or is my recollection mistaken as usual?
Or is there just no way to put them in the pix? I dunno...just curious
Thanx again for the great set though

looks awesome!
Pat☺
