He flew with the Thunderbirds. Any Pictures and info would be helpful. I have a few pictures of the plane, and the nose art, but the numbers can't be read.

interested in obtaining any information concerning LT.Col. William E.

Only information I have is a patch showing a hillbilly on a bomb and his
flight log book suggesting night missions and straffing runs.  Any help
would be grateful.

He passed on in 1983 and never passed any in-depth information on to me,
his son.  I am currently a C-130 evaluator flight engineer for the Air
