When I was stationed in Germany, Hahn & Spangdahlem ABs had F-4 squadrons. As a Chaparral/Vulcan officer, we all had to know our aircraft recognition.
Every now and then during my visits to the 'O' Club, I'd sidle up to a Zoomie, and ask for his assistance: for some reason, there's only one aircraft that my soldiers seem to continually get wrong, and that's the F-4. Can you help me out?
About half the time, I received some very concerned looks.
Truthfully, there was no other plane in the European theater (the world?) that remotely resembled the F-4, with its upturned wingtips and triangulated tail.
Yes I was on the good guys side?
