Was doing some spring cleaning in the garage, and this beat up old pic came up from out of the depths, like.
Two MK-84′s with M904 fuses a station 8 VER (and two on t’other side no doubt as well, or she’d be out of symmetry limits). AIM-9M on station 9, and the Great White Hope on station 6. Oh, drop tanks too, of course. It is a Hornet.
I just wonder who the kid is with cocky smirk and the head of dark hair.
On the back is written “Earnest Will, North Arabian Sea, July 1987.”
That was almost 20 years ago. Doesn’t seem possible.
