 Crew Chief Profile
14th Fighter Squadron "Samurais" , 1990 - 1993
During a night fly mission, a 13th FS (I believe) block 30 took off and crashed on base by the 'elephant cage' near the edge of the base lake on Misawa. It was a huge fireball, full of gas and had tanks. The pilot got out all right. The fuel s/o closed inadvertantly. We started safety wiring those open not long after that.
