Thank you for your service there.
I posted this because I knew that for many who served over there and saw these badass aircraft roaring in with those twin J-79 engines, it must have brought on feelings of relief, gratitude, and even some joy at seeing people who were trying to kill you get some.
I got very nostalgic when I saw this thing fly.
We had Skyhawks, Crusaders and Phantoms for close-in air support. The Crusaders always fired all their rockets in a single pass and then skedaddled. The others might hang around for a while. It was awesome when they fired their cannons.
Name something better than a J-79 on afterburner.
