"This is a true story about my cousin - Keith Gallagher surviving a very unusual and life threatening incident while serving as bombardier / navigator on a A-6 aircraft off the USS Abraham Lincoln in the Indian Ocean on July 9, 1991. Keith would recover from this accident, return to flight status, and complete his service in the Navy. Keith now works for a telecommunications company and lives in Kansas City with his wife Michelle and their two children."

I've worked with a lot of A-6 folks - designers, BNs, pilots (including the test pilot of the very first A-6). I've heard a LOT of A-6 stories - broken hooks - on deck ejections - combat sorties - but this one is one of the best.

Well documented on a great website. Well worth a look.
