My dad flew the F-4 in Vietnam. He did two tours of about 8 months each. I’ll never forget when they came home. We waited on the flight line and could hear the planes before we could see them. They would always fly over and dip the wings, then come around for a touch and go before finally landing. What a sight.

Thanks for sharing that. I have utmost respect for F-4 pilots, those things were like flying a Mack truck through the air compared to what came later.
