Kow,
Do you have a flickr or similar pic hosting site page? I'm sure I'm not the only one that never gets tired of your pics.

Right click on the picture and select Properties. That will give you the Flickr address.
Does that mean you're taking an Admiral out to do AUF? Somehow I think the boys at Cecil would be very upset.
Smiles and all that.

Neat photo... I made 3 deployments in the early '60s with A-1 Squadrons in our Air Wing (I was in A-4s), never saw them as a "tanker". Must be the A-4 D-904 tanker store on that Spad! Never even knew they could "pass gas"...duh!:watching3

That patch has been remade over and over again, but the PI made original, buku pesos now and HJ's right, any Turkey enthuziest would give up a testicle for that patch, myself included. The best part is knowing the patches origin - that's why I love reading the stories here.
I was on the "Pig E" in 89' - 90.' We were supposed to go to Perth but someone tried overthrowing the Aquino gov't. Instead we got 3 weeks on and off of LBFM's, San Miguel and Monkey Meat - mmmmm....
No shit -- that would have been Col Gregorio 'Gringo' Hanasan and Co. ... I was sitting on the seawall @ the Philippine Plaza for 4 days ('cause the INTL Airport was closed) watching the 'rebels' in the Philippine AF dive-bomb CAVITE and Malacanang Palace and calling the hits for them
while drinking CUBI SPECIALS -- it was war at it's BEST ... along w/ our then CEO Al Checchi and some of his flacks that had ridden us down from Tokyo ... Great front row seat, great times, naive/clueless upper management, cool drinks ...
