Hi, Gang -
I received the roster from Huey - and found another Gator right in my
neighborhood !! I looked in my local phone book last nite after seeing his name, and there he was...(yes, of course I called him imfreakin'mediately...)
John (Jack) Sova was assigned to 119th in late '69, and flew slicks, but doesn't recall a lot yet...
(I'm wurkin' onnim !!)
He was reassigned to the Pink Panthers somewhere about mid-tour.
He mentioned only a few specific events, the one that stands out is flying a "crunched" bird (result of a JP4 truck having backed into it at
AnKhe - Von Reber - any ideas???)
Gotta go...
but wait - after further perusal of the Roster, I found about 1/2 dozen Gators within a two-hour drive, if I can just contact them. And I WILL.
Lumpy
