Evan the Cold Warrior

Coming up on the 4th of July here in the states. It's a special time for us veterans. Here is my salute to all vets. These are all shots of my cold war days. I have more, when I find my scrap books, they are still packed!

Nope, but I do remember a few times when something was wrong, I could see the look of concern on the crew chiefs face and not wanting to know until we were safely on the ground. The worst one though was crossing the Med in a fierce storm. That airplane was pitching all over the place. I was the only one who didn't puke too. I was keeping a running tally while I munched on cookies. (I really was)
