I just saw an article about this in the latest email for USAFA graduates.

They not only managed to get the plane moved, but also located Capt. Sijan's old 1965 Corvette Stingray.

His story is amazing. Brave beyond belief. A hero. He was also quite the ladies man. The stories of his time at the Air Force Academy are legendary.

Well done to all who made this possible

Great work - especially to the men who hauled the aircraft and crane operators. Excellent teamwork, MAGA!

I recall the F4’s in Vietnam. To this day I think of them as just simply wicked. Watching them fly down at about a 45 degree angle behind a mountain, then fly upwards at another 45. Then a second or so later a ball of smoke. And slightly later the noise of the bombs.

Don’t know what was more awesome, watching F4’s or a Spooky at night.
