"Stay Low, and Follow Me"

“There are very few problems that cannot be solved through the suitable application of high explosives.” About 150kt worth should do it..........

The Royal Navy in Korea, circa 1950.......

I remember that......

Korea, 1968. The Navy has decided to do some COIN Training in a real-world environment, without the pesky AAA & SAMS of Vietnam. Where better than the "Land Of The Morning Calm"? "What could possibly go wrong? It'll be a milk-run, and you'll be in and out before the NK's get wise." (The guy in back has that look that says, "I am so screwed.") Intel was correct; there's the target, and so far, NO bad guys!!!! Emptied the pods and dropped the empties. (Remember the back seater's look?) The bad guys showed up to spoil the day but couldn't get a good run in because we were so low. They got chased off by a 4-ship of F-8's that came to our rescue.

This photo set was inspired by DaddyAirplanes...... "View from the Break" Looks cool, but when I came around, I Missed EVERY Wire, forgot to throttle up, skidded off the side, and went into the water right next to the carrier while laughing........

That was what worked for me on Win 11

I have this.... A-6A_Intruder-EA-6_Prowler_text.pdf

The Frag Order said to bomb a Kimchi Shack. I'm SURE it was a front for a cabbage-based Nuclear Weapons Facility, so I took the mission. Besides, it was a slow day on the water............ About to splatter fermented secret sauce over the Korean countryside. Now lets go find a use for these Walleyes......

I prefer the "Cadillac" of intruders....I have company when I'm scared witless......

Yes

When the Cold War got real hot in the North Atlantic....

No idea. One minute I'm rolling down the runway at about 150 knots, considering alternatives for running into trouble along the way, and there's the Phantom on the centerline. At 1st, I thought it was moving; said something ungentlemanly, and pulled the stick back in a hurry.
