USAF Wake-up call

Listening to the stories yall tell of Vietnam or some other battle and the experiences yall have been thru. I couldn't imagine. my brother was an F-18 mechanic at Beaufort air station when I was in high school. Back then he could get me on base and walk me through the hangers and seeing those awesome jets up close was pretty cool. I have always loved hearing fighter jets flying. My brother told me once that every style jet has a distinctive sound if you know what to listen for. About 10 years ago or so I was in Virginia beach and heard a F-14 tomcat fixing to land. Well that jet definitely had a distinctive sound to it.

other than being interested in lugers as a reason for being on this sight. Hearing everyone's stories about wartime and military related events is always interesting to hear. I'm sure ya'll have seen things that a regular citizen like myself just couldn't imagine. I respect every one of ya'll for that service and duty to our country that ya'll performed. thanks!
