Personal Information:
Retired Air Force pilot and intelligence officer.
Spent 13 years in Pacific
Spent 4 years in Europe.
Loved flying reconnaissance.  Had a neat logo across the various squadrons – “alone – unarmed – unafraid”.  Was true most of the time!

Highlights
My first flight into South Vietnam we overflew a little civilian French airport on the coast that had a short little runway with asphalt potholes and a low power radio station.  10 years later I made an emergency landing there and it was called DaNang!
I delivered the first RF-4 into Continental Europe direct from St Louis, MO.  What great fun!

I always loved BMWs.
In Europe had an 1800 TI.  We could take a week end drive to the Nurburgring for a day of fun driving for just few coins.  Not like today!!!)
When we lived in Honolulu, I had the first 2002 (what) in the state.  We would put all the surfboards on top rack and spend weekends on beach in the surf with kids and wife.   Wonderful!
Today I have collection of classic BMWs.  I call them “Cars with History!!
