Wings

[///AMG]

MCAS is a sweet deal.

VMFAT-101 I assume?

I can only thank the lucky stars out there that Miramar is NOTHING LIKE 1986 Fightertown, USA. TOP GUN, worst movie...


San Diego is a great place to be stationed. PM if you need a bar to head to that isn't full of Jarheads or Squids.

Yep, goin to -101 in June. You have PM

101 will always, to me, be the Marine F-4 squadron out of Yuma, that it always was and as I remember it.....
