From my old days with the Mass Air Guard... 101 TFS. We deployed to Phalsbourg, France when Khrushchev put up the Berlin Wall. I was at MIT and flying out of Logan with the MANG when Kennedy activated our unit. F-86H... world's best fighter... to this day!

Here's a pic of my old 101 Tac Fighter Squadron from the Mass Air Guard back in 1961-2. We were activated by Pres JFK when Mr. K put up the Berlin Wall... and deployed to Phalsbourg Air Base in eastern France. Our F-86H (best fighter plane... ever!)

Here's a pic of my old 101 Tac Fighter Squadron from the Mass Air Guard back in 1961-2. We were activated by Pres JFK when Mr. K put up the Berlin Wall... and deployed to Phalsbourg Air Base in eastern France. Our F-86H (best fighter plane... ever!) and our flight jackets display the shamrock... and we were widely known (mainly by us) as The Irish Air Force. I'm 5th from the left on the upper row. Many, many memories!!
