To Tankrat...

Tankrat, do me a favor please....
When you do your show in Hawaii in September (next month), if your (or some team member) is approached by a couple of persons named Samantha and Tracy Bell, please take a moment and take a photo of them around of the birds will ya.

She is my oldest daughter and her husband (both Captains in the USAF) I already sent them the "VIP Tickets" for that show but it sure would be nice if you guys would allow a picture at one of the aircraft. The last time she was around one was back in 1991 when I was Line-Cone and she was in Junior High School.

Would you do that for me, I know they would love it. They both just got assigned to Hickham AFB (last month) and would love to see the team again after so long - it would mean allot to me if you or the "folks" would make them feel good about an ex-team members kid being their to see that show.

Thanks - Tom Wharton (SMSgt Retired)

Thanks...if you think you might have a moment or two

Thanks again from Meathook

Sam at work, Creech AFB, NV. I was on the tower catwalk and she passed below me in the "sneaky" pass.

Salute! Salute

Re: "Combo"

The story behind it is NOT appropriate to post online.

But its damn funny.

Also, she is NOT a MiG killer, per the post above. The aircraft she was assigned to previously had MiG kills, but they were not hers.
