Thank you! Brings back my childhood. My dad was a USAF navigator and flew with EC 121’s in Norway/NATO, also spent a number of years flying with the 552nd Airborne Early Warning and Control Wing out McClellan AFB in Sacramento. We met him on the light line after a long mission “somewhere”, many, many times. Living in off base housing, not far from the end of the runway, I felt lucky being able to watch these and other aircraft come and go daily. Great memories.

Great memories, indeed. There were many good things about being an Army (or USAF) brat. :-)
