Oh hell yeah! The McDonnell Douglas F4 phantom is one of my favs. Hell, I was born in 1967!!! I do admire guys who flew worked in and around the F4. Too bad that the Air Force is using them for target drones. I saw one last year at Oshkosh which was in flyable condition. I think it came from Las Vegas? It sure was pretty bird and man, it was mean lookin. I got a picture of it from our C-130. It was parked in front of us on display. I'll have to dig up the pic and post it. But I do have something pretty cool. I collect aviation art and I have a lithograph of a F4 called, "The Animal" by Jim Doughtery. I have not framed it yet. But I did manage to buy a F4 patch on eBay to frame it with. Little did I know that the patch would come from Ho Chi Mihn City, Vietnam!! At least its authentic! Here is a pic of the Air Mail letter and patch.
