Pappy Boyington’s Bull Terrier, Meatball, on Black Sheep Squadron. Reminded me of Willie, Patton’s dog.

Interesting you brought up "Pappy" Boyington's dog! The Black Sheep Squadron visited the "Pappy" Boyington Field in Coeur d'Alene last June in five of their F-35B fighter jets.
There's a great statue of Boyington and a plaque honoring him at the airport. He was quite the man...
