Your Aces High call sign? It's significance?

"buhdman"  I had a dog named Buhd (southern for Bud).  He was a Speagle (cross between a Springer Spaniel and a Beagle).  He was a mutt and in an accident he lost most of his tail (happens to me all the time), so he wound up looking like some exotic breed of dog.  Even though he was a mutt, he was my buddy and he won first place in his obedience school.  Buhd brought a lot of joy to my life.  Unfortunately, we had to put him down young because of cancer, a couple of years ago.  This was about the time I started flying WarBirds, so in his honor, I took the name -buhd-.  Changed it to buhdman, because that's what some squad mates started calling me and in Aces High I finally had enough characters.
