Great story. Can't imagine being shot down, but he survived to fly non-stop around the world. Two great stories!

I calibrated the weapons system and radar for the F-4D at Ubon, Thailand, 1970-71. I heard many stories about how our pilots were denied authorization to drop ordinance on critical places in North Vietnam. There was no way the US government would let us win.
