To all my friends from Rookland, and my squadmates, for a flyby in honor of my father's passing, on Saturday night when I returned to Aces High. I know he would have loved it. Thanks for a tribute to a man who was my hero, and who served his country in both World War II (USAAC SW Pacific) and Korea (USAF).

Dan, I appreciate it. If you get time, look at the thread in the OC of the same title, I think you'll find my description of the funeral interesting. I may want to get with you about questions the family has about Dad's units.
