AFSC 32251A / AWCIS / Loved playing with the Big Toys. Proud to serve. Watching the Thunderbirds from the Roof of the Cal Barn at Dover. Watching the 1st C5A land and lose a wheel that bounded all the way to the South end of the Main Runway. Watching C141s landing late at night carrying the fallen from Vietnam. Then seeing the stream of black hearses carrying them North the next day on 301 to bring them back home. Humbling.
