He hated college boys while he fixed Boyington’s Corsairs. I liked Black Sheep Squadron.
RIP Red West.

Yes, and he also had a role in the Roadhouse movie with Patrick Swayze. Cool action flick.

Red was one of the authors of "Elvis - What Happened" which was published about a month before the King died. RIP Red.
