That is true. Many fighter pilots commented that the women in the different
branches of the service couldn't do what we were doing. When I first
started, they wanted us to pin the fake bombs, until one girl nearly got
sucked into jet engine.


Have you seen this one?

Yes, I have a really good copy of that on one of my old hard drives in
storage. The A-6 pilots I mentioned earlier told me all about it before I
seen the video. I have some pics of me in the cockpit. I should have
posted them since they are Navy. Sorry you didn't like the astronaut pics.

Geeeeeze dont got to balling and boo hooing, the long horns on the T-2
are very Texas.

Every one and his brother around here works at NASA and they have
patches, pictures, stickers, posters, ect...I even picked up a chromed
set of explosive bolt bookends that came from the apollo 11 launch. My
dad was with NASA & General Dynamics and we have been surrounded with
astronauts and astronaut collectables since I can remember, My first
memorys are of the space program, I have a chest in storage full of
every apollo and Mercury fight patches. Post your address here and Ill
mail you an orginal Apollo 13 postcard, anyone regular ASAer too..I've
got way to many and wan't to increase the value by using most and
leaving only 20-30 mint ones.
