When I was based at George AFB in the mid 80s the Air Force pilots from Beale would come down to George and do long straight in approach’s always chased by a T38 operating as a safety observer.

By contrast, the Lockheed pilots would fly the SRs that had been in depot maintenance over at Palmdale and would beat up the overhead pattern single ship. Saw it happen many times, something to behold.

Don’t know where that was taken at but I don’t think it was George.
Not a real picture, in that it was taken from a video game, that’s where.

That is what a bad ass motherfucker looks like.
His story is amazing, especially when he wasn't even talking about it.

Made some very excellent speaking engagements in his later years.
Amazing man, patriot, soldier.

Good times, 1981, and 1984
I was there first in 1977/78 and then from 1985 through 2019, First as a Marine and then as Civil Service. To save you doing the math...that's 35 years.

To be accurate I did have a few years where I was geo-bach'ing it elsewhere and/or deployed but my family was there the whole time. Grandson was born in the old hospital (now the HR building) on Base.

We would have spent the rest of our lives there but CA went full retard, so we left for a log house on 72 acres in rural NE AZ.
