Thailand, Guam and Korea.

Hi John,

great! Have you ever been at Bremgarten AB for a deployment? That was
one of
two Luftwaffe squadrons operating the RF-4E. They managed to totally
infect
me with the aviation virus during several viruses and it was there where
I
logged my first simulator hour :o)

Cheers,

Marc
