THUD PILOT VIDEO

[Steal2B]

God bless the Thud (F-105) and our American pilots be they Wild Weasels, Bears, or hunting Robins.

Long but riveting video

I am proud to report that these pilots remind me of the current bunch of the young Air Force, Navy, and Marine pilots I have had the honor to meet.

Thud, haven't heard that term in reference to an airplane in many moon's! Those boys could get them in close, I got rained on by 20mm cannon shells while they flew support, chunks of bombs landing all around us.

Goddam McNamara, Johnson, and the rest of the idiots behind the ROE's should be frying in hell if there is any justice. That goes for all the pukes before and since that think it's ok to just waste our people for chickenshit political expediency. I include GWB and BHO in that parade.

Glad you made it back and out of that. I’m sure if they were that close those bomb parts prolly saved your life as well as others. What war did you serve in?
