Listed as a Hack Aircraft for the 159th FG New Orleans, LA. Don't know what the word "HACK" describes but will tell you that this was an Operational Support Aircraft attached for the state of LA to the F-15's. Although we did not do much oversee's travel we did fly a majority of missions for the active duty side of the house. ALOT of Desert Shield and Desert Storm mission for the IRAQ war. This was my aircraft, as it was Bill Batty's, Ron, AJ Lecompte, Kieth, Ronnie Monsour and the best Aircraft Commander Big Ed. What memories. I am Scott Rodriguez, MSGT Retired LAANG, 2000
