Hi Jim!

JS>   I was at Carswell AFB, (Fort Worth, Texas) flying B-52s when
JS>  they were making the movie.  We could not let General Stewart
JS>  into the alert barracks because his security clearence was not
JS>  current.. :)
In the movie it was!  :-)))

JS>   We were already getting the F model B-52s in 1958.  Call it
JS>  progaganda but 2200 B-47s supported by 650 B-52 is a bit
JS>  more than propaganda. The Strategic Air Command insured the
JS>  peace.
But the story was kinda propaganda of the cold war.
The usual stuff of that time.
JS>      You should have watched History as well as discovery channel..
JS>  They are good but some of the editing is poor.. Such as seige guns
JS>  shooting at aircraft... Many little mistakes only seen by some
JS>  one that was there...
I wish I could :-)
I am leaving for Capetown on Friday and will shut down my Fido
echos (or I would sit down for weeks digging thru 4 weeks of echo mails).
So no need to send a reply, it certainly will end up nowhere. :-)
