| I was in the US Air Force stationed at Pope AFB North Carolina. I was attached to the 23rd Flying Tigers, Yes the very same Flying Tigers of WWII. I was Mechanic working on C-130s. I worked the kit shop, prop shop and test cell. I had a secondary MOS also. I was part of the security Police. Being trained in both I was sent to fun places like Somalia, Rwanda and Bosnia. We would fly into these areas, keep the engine running, and the ground crews would unload the plane. I was part of the security detail. Should anything happen to the aircraft I would trade my M16 for a wrench. When we went to Bosnia we took fire from the Serbs sitting in the mountains surrounding the airport. Nothing major just some holes in the wings.
