Military Roll Call!!

[turkeybird56]

On this day 50 Years ago I entered the military induction center in Boise Idaho, raised my right hand and took an oath. That was the beginning of my active military service in the United States Air Force.

I would do it all again if asked.

46 years ago for me more or less, Newark, NJ, lmao.

Awesome performance, costly to maintain. Didn't have Fly-By-Wire flight controls. F-15 Strike replaced them.
